Why?

I did not found any vue componant that uses thumbnail (smaller version of images) and is mobile-friendly (swipe)

  • This one is documented (and issued) in chinese only and has no thumbnails. Edit: I translated the readme (with google translate) and submitted a PR that was accepted, so now, the documentation is in english)
  • This one is documented (and issued) in chinese too and has no thumbnails either.
  • This one has no documentation.
  • This one is a kind of fork of the previous one
  • ...

So I created mine.
