This repo is the skeleton for using ACF fields for an theme options page and a hero slider page
Many props to Marc Wensauer (https://github.com/daslicht) who helped me understand how jQuery and wp_localize_script work together.
The hero slider page uses the template "slider-page.php". If you'd like to implement it, import the export from ACF in the acf directory. You'll also need flexslider and the "load-flex" js from the js directory. Be sure to look at functions.php to see how flexslider css and the appropriate js is loaded.
Demo of the slider at https://bertha.sterndata.com/hero-slider-test/
Note: Be sure to get latest version of flexslider before putting into production.
