-Carousels support swiping left/right on touchscreen devices to move between slides. This can be disabled using the `data-bs-touch` attribute. The example below also does not include the `data-bs-ride` attribute and has `data-bs-interval="false"` so it doesn't autoplay.

If set to `false`, hovering over the carousel won't pause it. On touch-enabled devices, when set to `"hover"`, cycling will pause on `touchend` (once the user finished interacting with the carousel) for two intervals, before automatically resuming. This is in addition to the mouse behavior. |
