Showing off your content in a slider/slideshow can be a wonderfully engaging experience for your users. Where it shines best as a solid UI design pattern is in cases where you want to present a series of content while preserving the continuity of the viewing experience. Your users can simply sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

Creating a content slider from scratch is fairly straightforward if you’ve got good experience in HTML, CSS and JS. But, regardless of your skills, you may still want to use a pre-built solution to speed up the implementation on a website. When it comes to responsive sliders — ones that work well on multiple devices, whether it’s a small-screened smartphone or a desktop with a widescreen monitor — there’s just so much to choose from.

To help those in search of a good responsive slider option, I’d like to share my list of the best free responsive content sliders out there right now.
