Javascript: Carousel active dots and left-right buttons

Question

I am beginner level javascript developer. I have decide to make carousel by using pure Javascript. I successfully manage to slide the carousel. I have decided to make active dots(also clickable), i want the dots background colour change when slide happen and left-right button. I have created the dots but I don't know how to implement the dots in my slide function as well left and right button. Here is my code:

Also please explain me the logic. Thank you

const images = document.getElementById('imgs');
const allImages = document.querySelectorAll('#imgs img');
const leftBtn = document.getElementById('left');
const rightBtn = document.getElementById('right');
let index = 0;

function run() {
  const dot = [...document.getElementsByClassName('star')];
  index++;


  if (index > allImages.length - 1) {
    index = 0
    dot.forEach(i => i.classList.add('active'))
  }
  imgs.style.transform = `translateX(${-index * 500}px)`

}
const dot = allImages.forEach(i => {
  const elem = document.createElement('div');
  elem.classList.add('star');
  document.body.appendChild(elem)
})

let x = setInterval(run, 2000);

images.onmouseover = () => {
  clearInterval(x)
}
images.onmouseout = () => {
  x = setInterval(run, 2000);
}

  box-sizing: border-box;

body {
  margin: 0;
  display: flex;

You were close to the result. In your run function, you just have to change the class of the current active dot and set the new one to active. I renamed your dot variable to dots for the sake of comprehension.

function run() {
  const dots = [...document.getElementsByClassName('star')];
  index++;


  if (index > allImages.length - 1) {
    index = 0
  }
  
  dots.forEach((dot, i) => {
    if (dot.classList.contains('active')) dot.classList.remove('active');
    if (i === index) dot.classList.add('active'));
  }
  imgs.style.transform = `translateX(${-index * 500}px)`

}
