Research direction
Examine the autoplay logic in the Carousel component (likely Carousel.vue). The loop can be implemented by resetting the current slide index to 0 when it reaches the last slide during autoplay, while ensuring smooth transitions. Check the existing `autoplay` prop and `nextSlide` method for integration points. The change should be minimal and additive.
