What are react-responsive-carousel's main functionalities?

Basic Carousel

This code demonstrates a basic carousel with three images. Each image has an associated legend. The carousel is responsive and will adjust to the size of its container.

import { Carousel } from 'react-responsive-carousel';
import 'react-responsive-carousel/lib/styles/carousel.min.css';

function BasicCarousel() {
  return (
    <Carousel>
      <div>
        <img src="image1.jpg" alt="Image 1" />
        <p className="legend">Legend 1</p>
      </div>
      <div>
        <img src="image2.jpg" alt="Image 2" />
        <p className="legend">Legend 2</p>
      </div>
      <div>
        <img src="image3.jpg" alt="Image 3" />
        <p className="legend">Legend 3</p>
      </div>
    </Carousel>
  );
}

Custom Controls

This code demonstrates a carousel with custom controls. The carousel will autoplay, loop infinitely, and respond to keyboard arrows and touch gestures. It also includes indicators and arrows for navigation.

import { Carousel } from 'react-responsive-carousel';
import 'react-responsive-carousel/lib/styles/carousel.min.css';

function CustomControlsCarousel() {
  return (
    <Carousel
      showArrows={true}
      showStatus={false}
      showIndicators={true}
      infiniteLoop={true}
      useKeyboardArrows={true}
      autoPlay={true}
      stopOnHover={true}
      swipeable={true}
      dynamicHeight={true}
      emulateTouch={true}
    >
      <div>
        <img src="image1.jpg" alt="Image 1" />
        <p className="legend">Legend 1</p>
      </div>
      <div>
        <img src="image2.jpg" alt="Image 2" />
        <p className="legend">Legend 2</p>
      </div>
      <div>
        <img src="image3.jpg" alt="Image 3" />
        <p className="legend">Legend 3</p>
      </div>
    </Carousel>
  );
}

function ThumbnailCarousel() {
  return (
    <Carousel showThumbs={true}>
      <div>

        <p className="legend">Legend 1</p>
      </div>
      <div>
        <img src="image2.jpg" alt="Image 2" />
        <p className="legend">Legend 2</p>
