Bootstrap 5 Carousel Custom Transition

Bootstrap 5 Carousel transition can be customized with the help of the SASS variables that help to set the duration of the transition. The transform transition will need to be defined first if multiple transitions are implemented. In other words, the transition can be set to a custom setting using the $carousel-transition-duration and $carousel-transitionSASS variables. For this, we have to get the SASS version and change the variable's values there.   

Carousel Custom transition variables:

• $carousel-transition-duration(.6s): This variable is used to change the duration by which the transition of one slide changes to the next or previous slide.
• $carousel-transition (transform $carousel-transition-duration ease-in-out): This variable is used to change the transition effects of the carousel slides.

Steps to override SCSS of Bootstrap:

Step 1: Install Bootstrap using the following command:

npm i bootstrap

Step 2: Create your custom SCSS file and write the variable you want to override. Then include the bootstrap SCSS file using import.

$variable_to_override: value
@import "../node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.scss";

Step 3: Convert the SCSS file to CSS using a live server extension.

Step 4: Include the CSS file in your HTML file.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">

• index.html:

Output:

Example 2: The code below demonstrated how to reduce the $carousel-transition-duration and change $carousel-transition variables to change the carousel's animation.
