Answer

To customize the transition speed of a Bootstrap carousel, you can modify the CSS transition properties of the carousel items. Here's a simple example of how to achieve this.

<!-- BEGIN COPY / PASTE -->
        <style>
            .carousel-item {
                transition: transform 2s ease, opacity 2s ease;
            }
        </style>

        <div id="carouselExample" class="carousel slide" data-bs-ride="carousel">
            <div class="carousel-inner">
                <div class="carousel-item active">
                    <img src="image1.jpg" class="d-block w-100" alt="...">
                </div>
                <div class="carousel-item">
                    <img src="image2.jpg" class="d-block w-100" alt="...">
                </div>
                <div class="carousel-item">
                    <img src="image3.jpg" class="d-block w-100" alt="...">
                </div>
            </div>
            <button class="carousel-control-prev" type="button" data-bs-target="#carouselExample" data-bs-slide="prev">
                <span class="carousel-control-prev-icon" aria-hidden="true"></span>
                <span class="visually-hidden">Previous</span>
            </button>
            <button class="carousel-control-next" type="button" data-bs-target="#carouselExample" data-bs-slide="next">
                <span class="carousel-control-next-icon" aria-hidden="true"></span>
                <span class="visually-hidden">Next</span>
            </button>
        </div>
        <!-- END COPY / PASTE -->

Additional Comment:

The `.carousel-item` class is modified to change the transition speed to 2 seconds.
You can adjust the `2s` value to your desired transition duration.
Ensure that your images have the correct paths and are accessible.
This example assumes you have included Bootstrap's CSS and JS files in your project.
