API / Controller

Use API controller (Not a lot of docs/examples out there - For specific answer you should add full-code-example):

swiper API: https://swiperjs.com/swiper-api#controller

Github: Github issue: How do I get two swiper instances to control each other? #1738

Example:

let sliderOne = new Swiper(".slider-one", {
  pagination: {
    el: ".swiper-pagination",
    clickable: true
  }
});
let sliderTwo = new Swiper(".slider-two", {
  pagination: {
    el: ".swiper-pagination",
    clickable: true
  }
});

sliderOne.controller.control = sliderTwo;
sliderTwo.controller.control = sliderOne;

thumbs

Two carousels click/swipe A change B - Very Easy to control/sync with thumbs:

In addition to Controller component Swiper comes with Thumbs component that is designed to work with additional thumbs swiper in a more correct way than Controller which is used for syncing two swipers.
