Nice work.

@BerkSmash1984
In the Pages.js, it appears the author is hardcoding the indicator buttons.

 for (let i = 0; i < this.config.pages; i += 1) {
      const circle = document.createElement('i');

      if (this.curPage === i) {
        circle.className = 'fa fa-circle indicator';
        if (this.config.activeBright) {
          circle.className += ' bright';
        }
      } else {
        circle.className = 'fa indicator';

Just editing the CSS wouldn’t change the icon itself. Similar to what I did for the Carousel, you would need to pass your array of icons to the .js

I am using MMM-Carousel to rotate through various slides in my Magic Mirror implementation.

I have updated some of the code in the MMM-Carousel.js

The relevant code added:
// Line 75

icons: [[]],

// Line 538

this.toggleTimer();

// Line 587

label.innerHTML = "<i class='"+Object.values(this.config.icons)[i]+"' style='color: #74C0FC;'></i>";

This line replaces the display of the radio buttons with the specified icons in your config.js. The MMM-Carousel modification supports a new attribute of icons; my example config…

{
module: "MMM-Carousel",
position: "bottom_bar", // Required only for navigation controls
config: {
transitionInterval: 20000,
showPageIndicators: true,
showPageControls: true,
ignoreModules: ["alert"],
mode: "slides",
slides: {
"calendar": ["clock", "MMM-GoogleCalendar"],
"weather": ["MMM-AccuWeatherForecastDeluxe"],
"sports": ["clock", "MMM-MyScoreboard", "MMM-MyStandings"],
"news": ["clock", "newsfeed", "MMM-Reddit-News-Ticker"],
"lights": ["mmm-hue-lights"],
"moode": ["MMM-WebView"]
                },
icons: { 
1: "fa-solid fa-calendar-days",
2: "fa-solid fa-sun",	
3: "fa-solid fa-baseball",
4: "fa-solid fa-newspaper",
5: "fa-solid fa-lightbulb",
6: "fa-solid fa-compact-disc fa-spin"
}, 
}
}

The icons array should be in the format shown with the icon class as referenced over at Font Awesome.

Additionally, I am integrating my mirror with Moode Audio. I adjusted the code to pause the rotation/transition timers when an icon is selected. This allows for interaction with the Moode interace. The Moode “page” itself is referenced using the MMM-Webview module.

{
      module: 'MMM-WebView',
      position: 'fullscreen_above',
      config: {
        url: 'http://mood.local',
        width: '1024px',
        height: '600px',
      },
    }

I also adjusted the CSS a bit for ‘readability’ of the icons.

.slider-pagination label {
  width: 32px;
  height: 32px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  display: inline-block;
  background: rgb(255 255 255 / 20%);
  margin: 0 2px;
  border: solid 1px rgb(255 255 255 / 40%);
  cursor: pointer !important;
}
