🚀 Setup

#1

Choose between:

  • Include this in your <head> section
<link href="node_modules/universal-parallax/dist/universal-parallax.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
  • Or add this CSS
.parallax__container {
    clip: rect(0, auto, auto, 0);
    height: 100%;
    left: 0;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    width: 100%;
    z-index: -100;
}
 
.parallax {
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    -webkit-transform: translate3d(000);
    transform: translate3d(000);
    -webkit-transform-style: preserve-3d;
    transform-style: preserve-3d;
    width: 100%;
 
    /* BG behaviour */
    background-position: center;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    background-size: cover;
}

⚡️ BG behaviour in seperate class gives more flexibility controlling them ⚡️ SASS version available in /dist folder

#2

If <section> is your container, make the parallax element inside it

<section>
    <div class="parallax" data-parallax-image="path/to/your_image">
</section>

⚡️ You can also use background-image to define your image instead of using data-parallax-image=""

#3

Static HTML

Include the script to your project

Put the script at the bottom of your markup right after jQuery

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.4.1.min.js"
  integrity="sha256-CSXorXvZcTkaix6Yvo6HppcZGetbYMGWSFlBw8HfCJo="
  crossorigin="anonymous"></script> 
<script src="node_modules/universal-parallax/dist/universal-parallax.min.js"></script>

Load

Webpack

Add jQuery via the "webpack.ProvidePlugin" to your webpack configuration:

 
//...
plugins: [
    new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
      $: 'jquery',
      jQuery: 'jquery',
      'window.jQuery': 'jquery'
    }),
],
//...

Load the required stylesheet and JS:

import 'universal-parallax/dist/universal-parallax.min.css';
import 'universal-parallax';

#4

Initialize the JS function

<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
  $('.parallax').universalParallax();
});
</script> 

That's it! 🏁

Custom speed

You can change the parallax speed; the higher the number, the slower the parallax effect

$(document).ready(function(){
     $('.parallax').universalParallax({
        speed: 6.0,
    });
});

⚡️ speed: 1 is the minimum value before the background image is fixed

Tips

Opacity

If you want your backround color to shine through or dampen the image without making it a .png - just add transparency to it

.parallax {
    opacity: 0.5;
}
