Hi @mariana_pic,
I’ve used swiper.js for many years before moving over to splide a while ago. I’ve moved because of performance issues and since the latest swiper.js version I’ve used(at least tried) was quite buggy and lead to many errors.
Using the newest version is something that almost every developer should advise you against. The idea of “oh look - a shine new thing, I want it” is not the way you should make decisions that might be used for quite some time.
Splide is a great slider script with a lot of options and possibilities. So I wouldn’t suggest not to use it only because it’s last update was 1,5- 2 years ago (and no I’m not a splide fan-boy by any means). But it fully depends on what you’re trying to achieve.
From a developers perspective the key is how splide (or any gallery script) would be implemented in modules/your theme to have the best possible performance.
@Sasha-A8 It’s quite outdated and almost replaced by the newest web-technologies and if implemted not correctly it might have an negative impact on page-speed?!
best,
Anton
