Create the Html structure for the image carousel.

    <!-- Carousel
        ================================================== -->
    <div id="myCarousel" class="carousel slide" data-ride="carousel"> 
      <!-- Indicators -->
      <ol class="carousel-indicators">
        <li data-target="#myCarousel" ng-repeat="img in images" class="{active : (img === 0)}" data-slide-to="{{img}}"></li>
      </ol>
      <div class="carousel-inner">
        <div ng-class="{item: true, active : (img === 0)}" ng-repeat="img in images"> <img ng-src="{{uri}}/{{w}}/{{h}}/{{currentFolder}}/{{img}}" alt="Slide numder {{img}}">
          <div class="container">
            <div class="carousel-caption"> </div>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>
      <a class="left carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" role="button" data-slide="prev"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left"></span></a> <a class="right carousel-control" href="#myCarousel" role="button" data-slide="next"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right"></span></a> </div>
    <!-- /.carousel --> 
    <!-- Fixed navbar -->
    <div class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-botom" role="navigation">
      <div class="container">
        <div class="navbar-collapse collapse">
          <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
            <li ng-repeat="folder in folders" class="{{activeFolder(folder)}}" ng-click="selectFolder(folder)"> <a ng-href="#{{folder}}">{{folder}}</a> </li>
          </ul>
        </div>
        <!--/.nav-collapse -->

  $scope.currentFolder = $scope.folders[0];
  $scope.selectFolder = function (folder) {
    $scope.currentFolder = folder;
  };
  $scope.activeFolder = function (folder) {
    return (folder === $scope.currentFolder) ? 'active' : '';

    I have a question… what is for the $http in the “app.controller(‘folderCtrl’, function ($scope, $http)”???
    I think it is not used afterwards
