Bootstrap 5 Modal/Carousel Gallery

Report · Jun 05, 2023

Due to frequent requests recently, I decided it was time to offer a working image gallery with latest version of Bootstrap.

Here's a screenshot of the desktop view.

Working Code:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Bootstrap 5.1.3 Demo</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

<!--Minified Bootstrap 5 CSS-->
<link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.1.3/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

<!--Bootstrap Icons-->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap-icons@1.10.2/font/bootstrap-icons.css">

<!--latest minified Bootstrap JS bundle-->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.1.3/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js">

//Script for Modal Gallery
var myCarousel = document.querySelector('#carouselControls')
var myModalEl = document.getElementById('myModal')

myModalEl.addEventListener('show.bs.modal', function (event) {
    const trigger = event.relatedTarget
    var bsCarousel = bootstrap.Carousel.getInstance(myCarousel)
    bsCarousel.to(trigger.dataset.bsSlideTo)
})
</script>
