Creating an interactive 360-degree product viewer with an attractive user interface using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is a simple, interactive resource that can be used to provide a virtual tour of your product. In this article, we will create an Interactive 360-degree Product Viewer using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Approach
- Create an HTML structure for your product viewer with an image section and two buttons.
- Now style the viewer container and buttons using the CSS. Set dimensions, colors, and positioning according to your design preferences.
- Use JavaScript to handle the interactivity by writing functions differently for the previous and next buttons.
- Make an update function such that it rotates an HTML element with the id ‘productImage’ around the Y-axis.
- Test your interactive 360-degree product viewer in different browsers and devices to ensure it works as expected.
Example: In this example, we will see the design of a product viewer with a 360-degree viewer.

Javascript
// script.js const productImage = document.getElementById('productImage');
const nextBtn = document.getElementById('nextBtn');
const prevBtn = document.getElementById('prevBtn');
const topBtn = document.getElementById('topBtn');
const bottomBtn = document.getElementById('bottomBtn');
let currentFrame = 1; const totalFrames = 36; nextBtn.addEventListener('click', () => {
if (currentFrame < totalFrames) {
currentFrame++;
update();
}
}); prevBtn.addEventListener('click', () => {
if (currentFrame > 1) {
currentFrame--;
update();
}
}); function update() {
const rotation = (currentFrame - 1) * (360 / totalFrames);
productImage.style.transform = `rotateY(${rotation}deg)`;
