How to reverse the direction of a slide in Swiper

What is Swiper?

Swiper is one of the most modern free touch sliders available. It combines the superior behavior of a mobile touch interface with its modern desktop counterpart.

Changing Slide Direction

Normally, Swiper’s slides move from left to right. However, there are times when right-to-left movement is desired, or when this movement is required in certain language or cultural contexts.

The easiest way to reverse slide direction in Swiper is to add the dir="rtl" attribute to the Swiper container.

<div class="swiper-container" dir="rtl">

Why use dir=" rtl”?

dir="r tl” is an attribute that sets the direction of text in HTML elements from right to left. Used primarily in right-to-left languages such as Arabic and Hebrew, this attribute allows Swiper to reverse the motion of a slide.

Conclusion

Slide direction can easily be reversed in Swiper, thereby satisfying the requirements of different cultures and languages. This little trick can be an effective way to make your website or application multicultural.
