Hi @LandonTClipp, Apart of the glightbox plugin, which seamlessly integrates JavaScript for the sliding / zooming logic, there is no other plugin that integrates a similar library, but there are similar JavaScript libraries that handle the images in a more mobile friendly manner, however you'd have to implement them into your MkDocs site yourself. |

The docs provide an example of a mkdocs plugin
glightbox
. This works well but the main issue I have with it is that it requires the images to be visible on the page regardless if you're in the slideshow view or not. I want a plugin where I can view a slideshow of images where there is a single box where I can scroll through all of the images in a grouping without all of those images being visible outside of the slideshow view.The main motivation comes from the fact that when I have a blog post with tons of images, it's difficult to read on mobile because it becomes a huge wall of images that have to be scrolled past (not to mention the fact that there is no TOC visible on mobile). For example: https://topofmind.dev/blog/2024/10/14/colorado-in-the-fall/
I could ask the mkdocs-glightbox maintainers obviously but I was wondering if anyone has had success with other solutions out there that don't require falling back to raw HTML in their markdown files.
