Custom Arrows react-slick

Question

I am using react-slick to create a carousel in my project. I've read through the documents and tried different things but could not find a way to customize it exactly the way I need... Does anyone knows if there a way to have the nextArrow show on/in front of the image and not on its right? See image below for desired result: image

Thanks for your help!

See official documentation https://react-slick.neostack.com/docs/example/custom-arrows/ https://react-slick.neostack.com/docs/example/previous-next-methods Code from there:

import React, { Component } from "react";
import Slider from "react-slick";

function SampleNextArrow(props) {
  const { className, style, onClick } = props;
  return (
    <div
      className={className}
      style={{ ...style, display: "block", background: "red" }}
      onClick={onClick}
    />
  );
}

function SamplePrevArrow(props) {
  const { className, style, onClick } = props;
  return (
    <div
      className={className}
      style={{ ...style, display: "block", background: "green" }}
      onClick={onClick}
    />
  );
}

export default class CustomArrows extends Component {
  render() {
    const settings = {
      dots: true,
      infinite: true,
      slidesToShow: 3,
      slidesToScroll: 1,
      nextArrow: <SampleNextArrow />,
      prevArrow: <SamplePrevArrow />
    };
    return (
      <div>
        <h2>Custom Arrows</h2>
        <Slider {...settings}>
          <div>
            <h3>1</h3>
          </div>
          <div>
            <h3>2</h3>
          </div>
          <div>
            <h3>3</h3>
          </div>
          <div>
            <h3>4</h3>
          </div>
          <div>
            <h3>5</h3>
          </div>
          <div>
            <h3>6</h3>
          </div>
        </Slider>
      </div>
    );
  }
}

OR

import React, { Component } from "react";
import Slider from "react-slick";

export default class PreviousNextMethods extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.next = this.next.bind(this);
    this.previous = this.previous.bind(this);
  }
  next() {
    this.slider.slickNext();
  }
  previous() {
    this.slider.slickPrev();
  }
  render() {
    const settings = {
      dots: true,
      infinite: true,
      speed: 500,
      slidesToShow: 1,
      slidesToScroll: 1
    };
    return (
      <div>
        <h2>Previous and Next methods</h2>
        <Slider ref={c => (this.slider = c)} {...settings}>
          <div key={1}>
            <h3>1</h3>
          </div>
          <div key={2}>
            <h3>2</h3>
          </div>
          <div key={3}>
            <h3>3</h3>
          </div>
          <div key={4}>
            <h3>4</h3>
          </div>
          <div key={5}>
            <h3>5</h3>
          </div>
          <div key={6}>
            <h3>6</h3>
          </div>
        </Slider>
        <div style={{ textAlign: "center" }}>
          <button className="button" onClick={this.previous}>
            Previous
          </button>
          <button className="button" onClick={this.next}>
            Next
          </button>
        </div>
      </div>
    );
  }
}
