Magento 2: Page Builder Product Carousel slick slide custom options

Question

Can someone please help me to add custom options to the slick slider init for page builder product carousels?

I don't know exactly where it's being initialized and I have very little experience in creating mixins.

I was easily able to do this by copying over

vendor/magento/module-page-builder/view/base/web/js/resource/slick/slick.js 

to my theme directory and replacing the response: null with the below but I know it's not the correct way to overwrite an entire library for a small change like this.

responsive: [
    {
        breakpoint: 9999,
        settings: {
            slidesToShow: 6,
            slidesToScroll: 6
        }
    },
    {
        breakpoint: 1024,
        settings: {
            slidesToShow: 4,
            slidesToScroll: 4
        }
    },
    {
        breakpoint: 768,
        settings: {
            slidesToShow: 3,
            slidesToScroll: 3
        }
    },
    {
        breakpoint: 480,
        settings: {
            slidesToShow: 1,
            slidesToScroll: 1
        }
    }
],

What would be the correct way to add my custom options to the slick init for page builder product carousels?

The breakpoints options for page builder product carousels are configured in vendor/magento/module-page-builder/etc/view.xml. If you want to override the options, you can add your options in the view.xml in your theme: app/design/frontend/{Vendor}/{theme}/etc/view.xml. e.g. set "slidesToShow" to 4 for breakpoint 1024, you can add

<vars module="Magento_PageBuilder">
    <var name="breakpoints">
        <var name="desktop">
            <var name="conditions">
                <var name="min-width">1024px</var>
            </var>
            <var name="options">
                <var name="products">
                    <var name="default">
                        <var name="slidesToShow">4</var>
                    </var>
                </var>
            </var>
        </var>           
    </var>
</vars>
