How to create custom product slider
Today we will learn How to create custom product slider. On the basis of your need, you can add your own condition such as product attribute filter, category filter, or join with any other table.

You can provide the custom settings for the slick slider in the slick() as a json object.

For better understanding of creating module, You can create module as per the give instruction in following link
https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/commerce-learn/tutorials/frontend-development/create-new-page.html
Let’s suppose our vendor name is Vendor and Module name is Module.
Note: This blog will work on magento 2.4.3 and later versions.
Let’s create a controller for accessing the page on storefront. This will load the layout page and its required content.
Path:- app/code/Vendor/Module/Controller/Index/MyProdList.php
<?php
namespace Vendor\Module\Controller\Index;
class MyProdList extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action
{
protected $_pageFactory;
public function __construct(
\Magento\Framework\App\Action\Context $context,
\Magento\Framework\View\Result\PageFactory $pageFactory
)
{
$this->_pageFactory = $pageFactory;
return parent::__construct($context);
}
public function execute()
{
return $this->_pageFactory->create();
}
}This is our layout file. You can use 1 column, 2 columns etc as per your need. You can also use the following block in your existing page such as catalog category page, catalog product page, customer pages etc.
Path:- app/code/Vendor/Module/view/frontend/layout/vendormod_index_myprodlist.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="1column" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
<referenceContainer name="content">
<block class="Vendor\Module\Block\ProductList" name="vendormod_index_myprodlist" template="Vendor_Module::index.phtml" />
</referenceContainer>
</page>Here is our block which is responsible for getting product collection and required params for adding product to cart, getting form key, getting price renderer etc. This file extends the block \Magento\Catalog\Block\Product\AbstractProduct.
Path:- app/code/Vendor/Module/Block/ProductList.php
<?php
namespace Vendor\Module\Block;
use Magento\Catalog\Pricing\Price\FinalPrice;
use Magento\Framework\Pricing\Render;
use Magento\Framework\App\ActionInterface;

$this->formKey = $formKey;
parent::__construct($context, $data);
}
/**

public function getFormKey()
{
return $this->formKey->getFormKey();
}

public function getLoadProducts()
{

->addAttributeToSelect(["name", "price", "image"])
//Custom filter on attributes

return $products;
}
/**

public function getLoadProduct($id)
{
return $this->productFactory->create()->load($id);
}
/**

public function getAddToCartPostParams(\Magento\Catalog\Model\Product $product)
{
$url = $this->getAddToCartUrl($product, ['_escape' => false]);
return [
'action' => $url,
'data' => [
'product' => (int) $product->getEntityId(),
ActionInterface::PARAM_NAME_URL_ENCODED =>
$this->urlHelper->getEncodedUrl($url),
]
];
}
/**

*
* @param \Magento\Catalog\Model\Product $product
* @return string
*/
public function getProductPrice(\Magento\Catalog\Model\Product $product)
{
$priceRender = $this->getPriceRender($product);
$price = '';
if ($priceRender) {
$price = $priceRender->render(
FinalPrice::PRICE_CODE,
$product,
[
'include_container' => true,
'display_minimal_price' => true,
'zone' => Render::ZONE_ITEM_LIST,
'list_category_page' => true
]
);
}
return $price;
}
/**

*
* @param \Magento\Catalog\Model\Product $product
* @return Render
*/
protected function getPriceRender($product)
{
return $this->getLayout()->createBlock(\Magento\Framework\Pricing\Render::class, "product.price.render.default".$product->getSku())
->setData('is_product_list', true);
}
}This is our phtml file which represent the slider on page. You can put the following code before, after or in the middle of the content.
