Hi @sonoman! I'm Dosu and I’m helping the react-native-reanimated-carousel team.

You're correct — the documentation examples reflect the main branch which includes v5.0.0-beta features, but the stable release is v4.0.3.

Specifically, contentContainerStyle was introduced in v5.0.0-beta.1 as part of a Style API modernization — it doesn't exist in v4.0.3.

For v4.0.3, use containerStyle instead:

// v4.0.3
<Carousel
  width={300}
  height={200}
  containerStyle={{ paddingHorizontal: 16 }}
/>

This documentation/versioning mismatch has been noted in #882 as well. If you need the newer features, you can try the beta versions (5.0.0-beta.x) or canary releases.

To reply, just mention @dosu.
