Setup Angular environment

You can use Angular CLI to setup your Angular applications. To install Angular CLI use the following command.

Copied to clipboard
npm install -g @angular/cli

Create an Angular application

Start a new Angular application using below Angular CLI command.

Copied to clipboard
ng new my-app
cd my-app

To install Carousel package, use the following command.

Copied to clipboard
npm install @syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations --save

The above package installs Carousel dependencies which are required to render the component in the Angular environment.

Import Carousel module into Angular application(app.module.ts) from the package @syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations.

Copied to clipboard
import { NgModule } from "@angular/core";
import { BrowserModule } from "@angular/platform-browser";
// Imported Syncfusion Carousel module from navigations package.
import { CarouselModule } from "@syncfusion/ej2-angular-navigations";
import { AppComponent } from "./app.component";

@NgModule({
  imports: [BrowserModule, CarouselModule], // Registering EJ2 Carousel Module.
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule {}

Modify the template in app.component.ts file with ejs-carousel to render the Carousel component.

import { Component } from "@angular/core";

@Component({
  selector: "app-root",
  template: `<!-- To Render Carousel. -->
    <div class="control-container">
      <ejs-carousel>
        <e-carousel-items>
          <e-carousel-item>
            <ng-template #template>
              <figure class="img-container">

                <figcaption class="img-caption">Cardinal</figcaption>
              </figure>
            </ng-template>
          </e-carousel-item>
          <e-carousel-item>
            <ng-template #template>
              <figure class="img-container">

            </ng-template>
          </e-carousel-item>
          <e-carousel-item>
            <ng-template #template>
              <figure class="img-container">
                <img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/costa-rica.png" alt="keel-billed-toucan" style="height:100%;width:100%;" />
                <figcaption class="img-caption">Keel-billed-toucan</figcaption>
              </figure>
            </ng-template>
          </e-carousel-item>
          <e-carousel-item>
            <ng-template #template>
              <figure class="img-container">
                <img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/kaohsiung.png" alt="yellow-warbler" style="height:100%;width:100%;" />
                <figcaption class="img-caption">Yellow-warbler</figcaption>
              </figure>
            </ng-template>
          </e-carousel-item>
          <e-carousel-item>
            <ng-template #template>
              <figure class="img-container">
                <img src="https://ej2.syncfusion.com/products/images/carousel/bee-eater.png" alt="bee-eater" style="height:100%;width:100%;" />
