Measured entry

tripled-cards-slider-shadcnui

sliderliquid-glassmotion on file

A client-side horizontal article-card carousel with drag gestures, spring-driven arrow navigation, image badges, author metadata, and hover actions. It ships as a shadcn registry component with sample data embedded in the file, and depends on React, Framer Motion, Lucide icons, Tailwind theme classes, and shadcn Card, Avatar, and Badge primitives.

Verdict

A polished starting point for shadcn-based editorial rails, with solid mounting and no detected accessibility violations. It needs a shadcn-style setup, and teams should budget time to fix compact-width overflow, connect the inert card action, and adapt its fixed sizing and embedded data.

Use it if

  • You need an editorial or portfolio carousel whose cards already match a shadcn theme.
  • Your interface benefits from both pointer dragging and explicit previous or next controls.
  • You are prepared to replace the embedded sample records and wire the card action to real behavior.

Skip it if

  • Your layout must avoid document overflow on compact and mid-sized screens without component changes.
  • You need content-driven card sizing, live data support, or responsive recalculation after the initial mount.
  • You want a lightweight slider without Framer Motion and several shadcn UI dependencies.
  • You need a turnkey card action, since the supplied View Details control has no handler.

Providerno provider required in the harness

In a non-shadcn project, add React, Framer Motion, Lucide React, Tailwind styling with the expected theme tokens, and compatible Card, Avatar, and Badge primitives. Configure the at-sign source alias and provide the shared class-name utility used by those primitives, then copy the component and replace its embedded records.
