Why?

I did not found any vue component that uses thumbnail (smaller version of images) and is mobile-friendly (swipe)

This one is documented (and issued) in chinese only and has no thumbnails. Edit: I translated the readme (with google translate) and submitted a PR that was accepted, so now, the documentation is in english)
This one is documented (and issued) in chinese too and has no thumbnails either.
This one has no documentation.
This one is a kind of fork of the previous one
...

So I created mine.
