Build an image carousel that displays a sequence of images.

Requirements

  • The image carousel component takes in an array of image URLs. Example image URLs are provided in the skeleton code.
  • Layout and positioning:
    • The image carousel should be centered on the screen with a maximum size of 600px by 400px.
    • Images should shrink to fit within the carousel so that the entire image is visible. Empty parts of the carousel can be filled with black.
    • If the screen width is smaller than the image, the carousel should be resized to fit within the available horizontal space.
  • Navigation:
    • Add left/right navigation buttons to allow the user to navigate through the images. The buttons should allow a cycling behavior, i.e. after the last image, the image cycles back to the first.
    • Add page buttons at the bottom to directly jump to an image. You may assume there will be fewer than 10 images.
  • Animations and transitions are not necessary for this question, they will be explored in Image Carousel II and Image Carousel III.

For this question, a technical restriction is there should only be one image element in the DOM at any one time.
