// Create an array of Carousel Items
const items: CarouselItem[] = Array(20)

		alt: 'A random photo',
		image: `https://picsum.photos/${210 + index}`,
		content: (
			<div>

Style

In order to achieve the layout shown in the demo, you should add styles to your markup.

There is an already existing stylesheet which can be found in the src folder and can be imported:

in your JS entrypoint

import 'react-round-carousel/src/index.css';

in your CSS entrypoint

@import 'react-round-carousel/src/index.css';

If you don't want to use the default stylesheet, you can create and use your own.
