# Slideshow

### Slideshow

The Slideshow section lets you showcase multiple images or videos in a rotating display. It’s great for highlighting promotions, new arrivals, or brand storytelling at the top of your store. Each slide can include text overlays, buttons, and links to guide customers to featured products or collections.
