Flipbook Vue 3 component

# Flipbook Vue 3

## Description

This package brings a vue 3 component that displays images in 3D page flip effect. Origin of this component is this repository: [flipbook-vue](https://github.com/ts1/flipbook-vue). Original repository provides a component that works nicely in vue 2, but due to errors and bugs in my vue 3 project I had to update it.

## Installation

To install this package, run the following command:

```bash
npm i @nmathar/flipbook-vue3
```

## Usage

You can use the `flipbook-vue3` component in your Vue 3 project as follows:

### Importing the Component

import FlipBook from '@nmathar/flipbook-vue3';
import "@nmathar/flipbook-vue3/dist/style.css"

app.mount('#app')
```


## Props

Here is a list of available props for the `flipbook-vue3` component:

### pages
Array of image URLs. Required. All images should have the same aspect ratio.

### zooms
Array of possible magnifications. null is equivalent to [1] (no zoom). Defaults to [1, 2, 4]. NOTE : Do NOT pass an empty array.

### perspective
