Similar projects
- Field Slideshow (https://www.drupal.org/project/field_slideshow): Offers similar functionality but uses older libraries.
- Views Slideshow (https://www.drupal.org/project/views_slideshow): More complex and view-based.
- This module differs by being lightweight, field-based, and using modern JS libraries with no Views dependency.
