| centerMode     | bool | Should we centre to a single item? | Yes |
| centerPadding  | | | |
| cssEase        | | | |
| dots           | bool | Should we show the dots at the bottom of the gallery | Yes |
| dotsClass      | string | Class applied to the dots if they are enabled | Yes |

| lazyLoad       | bool | Loads images or renders components on demands | Yes |
| responsive     | array | Array of objects in the form of `{ breakpoint: int, settings: { ... } }` The breakpoint _int_ is the `maxWidth` so the settings will be applied when resolution is below this value. Breakpoints in the array should be ordered from smalles to greatest. Use 'unslick' in place of the settings object to disable rendering the carousel at that breakpoint. Example: `[ { breakpoint: 768, settings: { slidesToShow: 3 } }, { breakpoint: 1024, settings: { slidesToShow: 5 } }, { breakpoint: 100000, settings: 'unslick' } ]`| Yes |

| afterChange | function | callback function called after the current index changes | Yes |
| beforeChange | function | callback function called before the current index changes | Yes |
| slickGoTo | int | go to the specified slide number

### Custom next/prev arrows

To customize the next/prev arrow elements, simply create new React components and set them
as the values of nextArrow and prevArrow.

```js
class LeftNavButton extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return <button {...this.props}>Next</button>  
  }
}
```

Important: be sure that you pass your component's props to your clickable element
like the example above. If you don't, your custom component won't trigger the click handler.

You can also set onClick={this.props.onClick} if you only want to set the click handler.
