Magento 2.1.10: Slick slider with ul li

I'm doing slick slider with ul li, and it doesn't work well.

What i mean is it take 2-5 second to load succesfully the slider (some time it take more than that). In that loading time, it look like this:

So here is the normal ul li, with out slick slider.

And here is what after i put slick slider in:

</script>
<?php endif;?>


I've try put this in slick slider option, but doesn't work at all:

slide: 'li',
track: function() return $(this).children('product-item'); ,


EDIT 1:


After 6 hours looking for the answer, i've found the reason (or atleast i thing its the reason :D ).

Okay, so i guest its because Magento wasn't load the javascript in time. I mean it take a while to load this slick slider javascript.

Right now, it take about 1-2 seconds for slick slider called successfully. And in that 1-2 seconds, it will render that problem out (just like in picture 2).

Ok so the problem is still there, if you guys have any suggestion, please tell me. Thanks alot :)



EDIT 2:

I'm follow @HoangHieu solution, but doesn't seem to work


Here is what i've done :

<div class="products-<?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo $mode; ?> <?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo $mode; ?>" data-mage-init=' "slick": '>
<ul class="slick-custom product-items <?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo $type; ?>">
// some li
<li>...</li>
</ul>
</div>


I've added data-mage-init=' "slick": ' in the . I called "slick" because that is what i define slickSlider in requirejs-config.js

data-mage-init=' "slick": '

"slick"

slickSlider

requirejs-config.js

var config =
map:
'*':
slick: 'Gssi_ProductsSlider/js/lib/slick',


;


EDIT 3:

Okay so here is what i've done til now after @HoangHieu solution:

<ul class="slick-custom product-items <?php /* @escapeNotVerified */ echo $type; ?>" data-mage-init=' "callSlick": '>
//some li
</ul>


call-slick.js

define(['jquery', 'slick'], function ($)
"use strict";
return function (config, element)
let defaultConfig =
infinite: true,
slidesToShow: 4,
speed: 300,
autoplay: true,
arrows: false,
dots: false,
responsive: [

breakpoint: 1024,
settings:
slidesToShow: 4

,

breakpoint: 600,
settings:
slidesToShow: 3

,

breakpoint: 480,
settings:
slidesToShow: 2


]
;
$(element).slick($.extend(, defaultConfig, config));
;
);


requirejs-config.js

/**
* Copyright © Magento, Inc. All rights reserved.
* See COPYING.txt for license details.
*/

var config =
map:
'*':
slick: 'Gssi_ProductsSlider/js/lib/slick',
callSlick: 'Gssi_ProductsSlider/js/call-slick'


;

Some widget will load after the page loaded. By if you search in HTML about <!-- BLOCK -- that is https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.1/extension-dev-guide/cache/page-caching/private-content.html

<!-- BLOCK --

Flow here

Html loaded --> KnoutJs UIComponent get Prefix BLOCK to load --> Load Block HTML using AJAX --> Append to BODY.

that means you can't apply Slick Slider by using simple ways. Using Component instead

<div data-mage-init="'slickSlider':">
<ul>
<li></li>
</ul>
</div>


See more here: https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/javascript-dev-guide/javascript/js_init.html

Update 2: I think you didn't read my related documents. I will give you an example.

1: My Product List Widget Template.

<ol class="product-items <?= /* @escapeNotVerified */ $type ?>" data-mage-init='"callSlick":'>
<?php $iterator = 1; ?>
<?php foreach ($items as $_item): ?>
<?= /* @escapeNotVerified */ ($iterator++ == 1) ? '<li class="product-item">' : '</li><li class="product-item">' ?>
<div class="product-item-info">
<a href="<?= /* @escapeNotVerified */ $block->getProductUrl($_item) ?>" class="product-item-photo">
<?= $block->getImage($_item, $image)->toHtml() ?>
</a>
<div class="product-item-details">
<strong class="product-item-name">
<a title="<?= $block->escapeHtml($_item->getName()) ?>"
href="<?= /* @escapeNotVerified */ $block->getProductUrl($_item) ?>"
class="product-item-link">
<?= $block->escapeHtml($_item->getName()) ?>
</a>
</strong>

</div>
</div>
<?= ($iterator == count($items)+1) ? '</li>' : '' ?>
<?php endforeach ?>
</ol>


Requiejs-config.js

var config =
map:
'*':
slickSlider: 'Magento_Catalog/js/slick', //Slick slider libary
callSlick: 'Magento_Catalog/js/call-slick'


;


call-slick.js

/**
* Created by Hidro Le.
* Job Title: Magento Developer
* Date: 27/08/2018
* Time: 10:16
*/

define(['jquery', 'slickSlider'], function ($)
"use strict";
return function (config, element)
let defaultConfig =
infinite: true,
slidesToShow: 3,
slidesToScroll: 3
;
$(element).slick($.extend(, defaultConfig, config));
;
);


**Update 2: ** The result exactly example.

Update 3: If you are work with your team. Please recheck page Style Sheet, Create new page content with an empty layout to make sure didn't have any custom CSS affected on your code.

$.extend(

config
