Slick Carousel smooth scrolling

Question

I have been using the slick carousel for a while, but I was curious if it was possible to tweak the carousel to get a smooth scrolling effect, as the same effect you get when you scroll vertically on your phone (on a given web page fx.).

In other words, I want the slick carousel to scroll in a variable speed, have a continuously flow, and will eventually not automatically head back to the start of a carousel/element, when you are not touching the carousel anymore.

Thanks

Solution 1

For Smooth/Continous Scrolling

$('.continuous').slick({ speed: 9000, autoplay: true, autoplaySpeed: 0, cssEase: 'linear', slidesToShow: 1, slidesToScroll: 1, variableWidth: true,

});

Solution 2

As it says in the github-thread, I have linked in the comment to my question, the latest version of Slick does not support smooth scrolling.

I saw that Flickity and Swiper had good support for that, which I did some experiments with, but due to performance issues with both of them, I ended up making a simple horizontal div with multiple child-elements inside. That was the winning solution for me.
