CloseBetter Netflix Carousel using SwiperJS
This is a remake of my first YouTube tutorial that I did showing you how to create a simple Netflix looking like slider. This time I wanted to take it a step further by using a JavaScript framework called SwiperJS. SwiperJS has amazing API options that we can use to build amazing easy to use carousels.
First of all, make sure you download SwiperJS from here: https://swiperjs.com/

I’m seeing the videos display vertically in both Chrome & Firefox. Is there an error with the source code?
Is that when you go fullscreen on mobile?
same problem: on ie11 it is vertically, in firefox it works.
IE doesn’t support the flex property. The fix would be to remove everything display flex from .swiper-slide class name
