Not sure on documentation.
The older Drupal 7
docs/7/modules/views-slideshow/installation-requirements
Says put the js files LIBRARIES under:
public_html/Yoursite/sites/all/
Did not work for me.
Others said put the js files LIBRARIES under:
public_html/Yoursite/
That works.
Can someone please explain the confusion?

Ya that's where I got it thanks.
I liked the OStraining "Drupal 8 Explained".
That solved the problem for me but did not explain:
"Upload the files to the /libraries/ folder in the root of your site. This is different from Drupal 7, so be careful. "
Still lots of undocumented confusion?
Structure too:
All in jquery.cycle folder vs
public_html/Yoursite/libraries/
jquery.cycle/jquery.cycle.all.js
jquery.easing/jquery.easing.1.3
jquery.hoverIntent/jquery.hoverIntent.js
jquery.pause.js/jquery.pause.js
json2/json2js
Libraries in Drupal 8
Libraries in Drupal 8 are handled differently from Drupal 7. You need to follow the Drupal 8 specific instructions.
Steps to Use of View Slideshow and add Libraries
Hii
Use this following link for view slideshow
https://www.ostraining.com/blog/drupal/drupal-8-slideshows/
There is no folder Libraries
Is this the folder now called "vendors". The OStraing website has a screenshot but it does not show the Vendor folder. Or are we to create a folder called Library in the root.
You can create folder Libraries
Yes,You can create folder Libraries in your root directory.
