Slider

Slider control allows users to select a specific value or a range of values from a set. Usually, slider presents a relatively large dataset and the way that the user interacts with it is helpful to explore the multiple options swiftly.

      <DxcSlider
        label="Select a value"

    console.log(slider.value);
  };

  return (
    <DxcInset space="2rem">
      <DxcFlex direction="column" gap="2rem">
        <DxcSlider
