A brief for your coding agent: what the block is, the install command, how to render it, its props and the rules. Copy it, or open a prompt about this block in an assistant.
# Brok UI block: Hero Slideshow (`hero-slideshow`)
A full-width rotating storefront hero carousel of three slides, each with a muted cover layer, token scrim, eyebrow badge, headline, subcopy, and primary call-to-action. Inline Alpine drives wrap-around previous/next icon controls, a row of dot indicators that reflect and jump to the active slide, and an optional gentle auto-advance that pauses on hover, never starts under prefers-reduced-motion, and offers an explicit pause/play toggle.
Brok UI is a Laravel Blade registry. `ui:add` copies this block into the app as plain Blade the app owns; it composes installed `<brok:*>` primitives and semantic design tokens.
## Install
```bash
php artisan ui:add blocks/hero-slideshow
```
## Render it
```blade
<x-blocks.hero-slideshow />
```
## Props
- `slides` (mixed|null, default `null`) — Rows of {eyebrow, heading, subheading, cta, href}; null falls back to a default 3-slide sample.
- `autoplay` (bool, default `true`) — Enables automatic advancing between slides; disabled also hides the pause/play toggle.
- `interval` (int, default `6000`) — Milliseconds between automatic slide advances.
## Use when
- Opening a storefront or campaign landing page that needs to rotate between several full-bleed promotional messages in one hero slot.
- Wanting built-in autoplay with pause-on-hover, an explicit pause/play toggle, and wrap-around previous/next/dot navigation.
## Avoid when
- Showing a single static message is enough; a carousel adds interaction and motion cost that a plain hero (hero-image or hero-centered) avoids.
## Rules
- Render the installed block with `<x-blocks.hero-slideshow />` and pass data through its props; edit the copied file only for structural changes.
- Keep the semantic design tokens (`bg-background`, `text-muted-foreground`); never swap in raw colour utilities.
- Keep the `data-slot` attributes and the logical (start/end) spacing so the markup still mirrors under `dir="rtl"`.
## Links
- Docs: https://brokui.dev/blocks/hero-slideshow
- Registry JSON (files, props, contract): https://brokui.dev/r/open/blocks/hero-slideshow.json
Working in Claude Code, Cursor or Codex? Give the agent the whole registry through the MCP server or the Brok UI skill.
Guidance
Use when
- Opening a storefront or campaign landing page that needs to rotate between several full-bleed promotional messages in one hero slot.
- Wanting built-in autoplay with pause-on-hover, an explicit pause/play toggle, and wrap-around previous/next/dot navigation.
Avoid when
- Showing a single static message is enough; a carousel adds interaction and motion cost that a plain hero (hero-image or hero-centered) avoids.
Anti-patterns
- Do not replace semantic props with conflicting utility classes.
- Do not remove labels, focus styles, or state attributes.
- Anatomy
Usage
Render the block as a component, passing data where useful:
<x-blocks.hero-slideshow />
Built from primitives
This block composes installed <brok:*> primitives and semantic design
tokens only — it does not reimplement any primitive. Re-theme it (light, dark, admin, customer) by
editing CSS variables; flip the preview to RTL to confirm it mirrors.
