As a web developer, I always look for tools to enhance user experience and simplify workflow. Today, I'm excited to introduce overlay-image-gallery, a new React library that offers a multi-step image overlay and preview functionality. This package is designed to create responsive and user-friendly image galleries with just a few lines of code.
What is overlay-image-gallery?
overlay-image-gallery is a React component that transforms the way we display image galleries. It provides a two-step viewing experience:
An initial gallery view with a subset of images
A modal gallery view that displays the full set of images when an image is clicked
Key Features:
Responsive design that adapts to various screen sizes
User-friendly interface with clickable images and navigation
Customizable layout options
Full-screen mode capability
Easy integration into React projects
How It Works:
The component renders an initial gallery of images.
When a user clicks on an image, a modal opens with a larger gallery view.
In the modal, users can click on images to view them in full size.
A clickable list of thumbnails is available for quick navigation.
Installation:
npm install overlay-image-gallery
or
yarn add overlay-image-gallery
Usage:
import { ImageGallery } from "overlay-image-gallery";
const App = () => {
const images = [
"https://example.com/image1.jpg",
"https://example.com/image2.jpg",
"https://example.com/image3.jpg",
];
return(
<ImageGallery
images={images}
width={800}
height={600}
grid="v1" />
)};
export default App;
