Building the slider

Sliders have 3 navigation styles to choose from (they can also be used together):

• [data-nav-style="arrows"] Arrows
• [data-nav-style="text"] Clickable boxes with descriptive text
• [data-nav-style="circles"] Clickable circles with or without text

[data-slide-id]

• This attribute connects the navigational elements to the corresponding content that it toggles between.
• Any string can go in here as long as it does not contain spaces or periods.
• This appears on the .slider-nav and the .switcher-body elements and must be identical or the content change will not trigger.

[data-active]

• This attribute can be either true or false; it indicates which navigational element is styled in the active state (i.e., filled in circle or if a directional arrow is visible).
• Only one navigational element should be set to active in the set.

[data-slide-to]

• This determines which content item this navigational element will slide to, updated by JS after a selection is made

[data-direction]

• Specific to arrows, this determines which direction through the content we are navigating.
• Valid values are prev and next
