About Bending Carousel

Bending Carousel is a draggable media slider that bends along a Gaussian curve as you move it. The bend follows your drag direction and speed, then flattens when the carousel snaps to the nearest item.

Features

  • Images and videos in one carousel

  • Manual items or connected Framer content

  • CMS Collection List support

  • Video-only CMS items require no image

  • Horizontal or vertical orientation

  • Infinite and bounded modes

  • Per-item links

  • Adjustable sizing, bend, drag, scaling, fading, and corner radius

  • Optimised WebGL rendering with offscreen pausing

Connecting Framer CMS

  1. Place a CMS Collection List outside the visible page frame, but keep it enabled.

  2. Inside each Collection Item, connect an Image or Video component to its CMS field.

  3. Set Bending Carousel’s Source to Connected Content.

  4. Connect the Collection List through the Content connector.

Each CMS item can contain either an image or a video. The carousel reads the connected media and keeps the CMS order.

To upload media directly, select Manual Items instead.

Bending Carousel works well for portfolios, project galleries, products, and editorial showcases.
