Creating carousel gallery with slim jetpack

I am trying to create a gallery with the slim jetpack extension. I can’t seem to find the option to create a gallery with a “featured” picture, with the remainder hidden from view until clicked on. It seems to be possible with the wordpress.com version with the default thumbnail version (see below)

This specific layout is what I am looking for as I need multiple galleries on one page and I prefer the layout of this to any others I have found. Is there a way to do this with the slim jetpack plugin? I have literally been working on this all day and am running out of ideas or plugin’s to try.
