Flickity works on a container carousel element with a group of cell elements.

<div class="main-carousel">
  <div class="carousel-cell">...</div>
  <div class="carousel-cell">...</div>
  <div class="carousel-cell">...</div>
  ...
</div>

There are several ways to initialize Flickity.

Initialize with jQuery

You can use Flickity as a jQuery plugin: $('selector').flickity().

$('.main-carousel').flickity({
  // options
  cellAlign: 'left',
  contain: true
});

Initialize with vanilla JavaScript

You can use Flickity with vanilla JS: new Flickity( elem ). The Flickity() constructor accepts two arguments: the carousel element and an options object.

var elem = document.querySelector('.main-carousel');
var flkty = new Flickity( elem, {
  // options
  cellAlign: 'left',
  contain: true
});

// element argument can be a selector string
//   for an individual element
var flkty = new Flickity( '.main-carousel', {
  // options
});

Initialize with HTML

You can initialize Flickity in HTML, without writing any JavaScript. Add data-flickity attribute to the carousel element. Options can be set in its value.

<div class="main-carousel" data-flickity='{ "cellAlign": "left", "contain": true }'>

Options set in HTML must be valid JSON. Keys need to be quoted, for example "cellAlign":. Note that the attribute value uses single quotes ', but the JSON entities use double-quotes ".
