The fine folks at the Yahoo! Developer Network released an Astra Carousel component just recently. From what I’ve messed around with it thus far it seems pretty impressive and fairly easy to modify. It’s based on the built in List component, so populating it is easy.
They’ve got some great documentation on it and some examples to get started. Â Based on what I’ve seen thus far, I think that it’ll work it’s way into a few of my upcoming projects.
