How to make full screen pure css based slider
When we are going to do image or content slider, that time first we think, how to make slider, which jQuery plugin or JavaScript we use for create slider? Right? But just imagine and think, it’s possible to make interactive slider with css, without use of any JavaScript. Here I will let you now good tutorial for how to make pure css based full screen slider without use of any jQuery or JavaScript.
Before making of css based slider you can see the css slider demo.
We going to create css based animation slider, means this slider working without using of any JavaScript. For css based slider control like, pagination, next, previous, we use radio button and label with “for” attribute.
First we create html structure for css slider. First we take one div and apply class name like “css-based-slider” to div and all element like slides, pagination, and next, previous button we put in this div.
<div class="css-slider-wrapper"></div>
For this first div css like this, its have full screen slide so we set position absolute
.css-slider-wrapper {
display: block;
background: #FFF;
overflow: hidden;
position:absolute;
left:0;
right:0;
top:0;
bottom:0;
}
We have created first wrapper div, now we will make slide section. Currently we make 4 slides so we have to create 4 slide div so this slide html and css as below
<div class="css-slider-wrapper">
<div class="slider slide1">
<div>
<h2>Css Based slider</h2>
</div>
</div>
<div class="slider slide2">
<div>
<h2>CSS Slider without use of any javascript or jQuery</h2>
</div>
</div>
<div class="slider slide3">
<div>
<h2>Full screen animation slider</h2>
</div>
</div>
<div class="slider slide4">
<div>
<h2>css3 slider</h2>
</div>
</div>
</div>
We need to create one common class for all 4 slides and create 4 classes for each slides, slide css as per below
.slider {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: red;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
top: 0;
opacity: 1;
z-index: 0;
display: flex;
display: -webkit-flex;
display: -ms-flexbox;
flex-direction: row;
flex-wrap: wrap;
-webkit-flex-align: center;
-webkit-align-items: center;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
align-content: center;
-webkit-transition: -webkit-transform 1600ms;
transition: -webkit-transform 1600ms, transform 1600ms;
-webkit-transform: scale(1);
transform: scale(1);
}
/* each slide background color */
.slide1 {
background: #00bcd7;
left: 0;
}
.slide2 {
background: #009788;
left: 100%
}
.slide3 {
background: #ff5608;
left: 200%
}
.slide4 {
background: #607d8d;
left: 300%;
}
We have done slider css and html. We create control like pagination, Next and previous button for slider. For control we use label element so we pass the “for” attribute value to radio button, so we easily manage slider control. Slider control html and css as below.
/* slider-pagination */
.slider-pagination {
position: absolute;
bottom: 20px;
width: 100%;
left: 0;
text-align: center;
z-index: 1000;
}
.slider-pagination label {
width: 10px;
height: 10px;
border-radius: 50%;
display: inline-block;
background: rgba(255,255,255,0.2);
margin: 0 2px;
border: solid 1px rgba(255,255,255,0.4);
cursor: pointer;
}
/* Next and previous button*/
.control {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
width: 50px;
height: 50px;
margin-top: -25px;
z-index: 55;
}
.control label {
z-index: 0;
display: none;
text-align: center;
line-height: 50px;
font-size: 50px;
color: #FFF;
cursor: pointer;
opacity: 0.2;
}
.control label:hover {
opacity: 0.5;
}
.next {
right: 1%;
}
.previous {
left: 1%;
}
<div class="slider-pagination">
<label for="slider_1" class="page1"></label>
<label for="slider_2" class="page2"></label>
<label for="slider_3" class="page3"></label>
<label for="slider_4" class="page4"></label>
</div>
<div class="next control">
<label for="slider_1" class="numb1"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-right"></i></label>
<label for="slider_2" class="numb2"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-right"></i></label>
<label for="slider_3" class="numb3"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-right"></i></label>
<label for="slider_4" class="numb4"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-right"></i></label>
</div>
<div class="previous control">
<label for="slider_1" class="numb1"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-left"></i></label>
<label for="slider_2" class="numb2"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-left"></i></label>
<label for="slider_3" class="numb3"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-left"></i></label>
<label for="slider_4" class="numb4"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-left"></i></label>
</div>
After completing the control element html and css, we have to create radio button. Because we use this radio button native functionality for the moving slider this radio button we put in main slider wrapper div at top first position like below html structure
<div class="css-slider-wrapper">
<input type="radio" name="slider" class="slide-radio1" checked id="slider_1">
<input type="radio" name="slider" class="slide-radio2" id="slider_2">
<input type="radio" name="slider" class="slide-radio3" id="slider_3">
<input type="radio" name="slider" class="slide-radio4" id="slider_4">
For the css or the radio button we hide on browser because we don’t want to show on browser and we will use for attribute on label
Now we make sliding control css, when you will click on next, previous and pagination button. we use :checked pseudo class to control sliding.
For the control sliding effect css like this
/* Slider control sliding effect */
.slide-radio1:checked ~ .slider {
-webkit-transform: translateX(0%);
transform: translateX(0%);
}
.slide-radio2:checked ~ .slider {
-webkit-transform: translateX(-100%);
transform: translateX(-100%);
}
.slide-radio3:checked ~ .slider {
-webkit-transform: translateX(-200%);
transform: translateX(-200%);
}
.slide-radio4:checked ~ .slider {
-webkit-transform: translateX(-300%);
transform: translateX(-300%);
}
/* next and previous will be active when slider moving*/
.slide-radio1:checked ~ .next .numb2,
.slide-radio2:checked ~ .next .numb3,
.slide-radio3:checked ~ .next .numb4,
.slide-radio2:checked ~ .previous .numb1,
.slide-radio3:checked ~ .previous .numb2,
.slide-radio4:checked ~ .previous .numb3 {
display: block;
z-index: 1
}
/* css for active current pagination */
.slide-radio1:checked ~ .slider-pagination .page1,
.slide-radio2:checked ~ .slider-pagination .page2,
.slide-radio3:checked ~ .slider-pagination .page3,
.slide-radio4:checked ~ .slider-pagination .page4 {
background: rgba(255,255,255,1)
}
Final HTML and css for slider
Friend, we have completed html and css for slider and final css and html code is the as below
<div class="css-slider-wrapper">
<input type="radio" name="slider" class="slide-radio1" checked id="slider_1">
<input type="radio" name="slider" class="slide-radio2" id="slider_2">
<input type="radio" name="slider" class="slide-radio3" id="slider_3">
<input type="radio" name="slider" class="slide-radio4" id="slider_4">
<div class="slider-pagination">
<label for="slider_1" class="page1"></label>
<label for="slider_2" class="page2"></label>
<label for="slider_3" class="page3"></label>
<label for="slider_4" class="page4"></label>
</div>
<div class="next control">
<label for="slider_1" class="numb1"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-right"></i></label>
<label for="slider_2" class="numb2"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-right"></i></label>
<label for="slider_3" class="numb3"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-right"></i></label>

<label for="slider_2" class="numb2"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-left"></i></label>
<label for="slider_3" class="numb3"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-left"></i></label>
<label for="slider_4" class="numb4"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-left"></i></label>
</div>
<div class="slider slide1">
<div>
<h2>Css Based slider</h2>
<a href="#" class="button">Download</a>

<div class="slider slide2">
<div>
