Introduction

Implement a carousel in React JS is not a big deal if you read this blog at the end. 
now a day React JS is becoming very popular and lots of plugins are available to full fill the client's requirements.

In this blog, I will show you how to implement a carousel using Bootstrap and  React JS in SharePoint/Office 365 SPFx 

Steps to Follow

It is just simple as make a coffee only the things need to execute a few npm commands.

you can run it directly by Node Js Command Prompt or Visual Studio Code IDE by opening Terminal from the top menus

  • Create a folder in your development folder in your systems drive and point it in Visual Studio Code by Opening in a new folder
  • Then copy and paste the below command into the terminal window
  yo @microsoft/sharepoint


after that, you need to follow steps as Yo Command returns and select React JS as the framework
once the package is created, then need to run some more commands 

 npm i --save react-bootstrap

This will instal package combination with the bootstrap and React JS

 npm install bootstrap@4 --save
npm install @types/bootstrap@4 --save

above commands are used to resolve some CSS related issue which I face and after that component working fine

npm install jquery --save
npm install @types/jquery --save

above commands resolve the dependency of JQuery.
all thing is done now, now the time for the final code 



Code

open your TSX file and above at the import section copy and paste these lines

import  Carousel  from 'react-bootstrap/Carousel';
import "bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css";
import * as jQuery from 'jquery';


Now it' time for heroes entry, copy the below code and paste it into your render section
