SharePoint image gallery

Hi    in the root classic SharePoint Online site there's an image gallery web part with a hover/overlay - how can I create the same web part in a Communication site?

    Taen keren the web parts on a modern Communications site are totally separate from those on a classic site. Some work the same way, most don't or are not yet available at all. There's nothing you can do about that.

On communication sites there is Image gallery web part available.

You can either select images to be displayed or automatically roll-up images from a document library. There is several layout options also available.

    Matti Paukkonen - no hover/overlay effect with image info as there is on the classic

      Then you have to take a look at the free webparts you can find in GitHub or ask a developer to build one for you

        jcgonzalezmartin - and there's no option to use the one from Classic in the Comm site? - or maybe a feature that needs to be enabled on the Comm site? 

        What happens to the one on the classic - once MS delivers the "Enable-CommSite" ?
