A jQuery plugin that adds simple parallax scrolling effects to web pages, inspired by Spotify.com. It creates fixed-position mirror elements behind target elements to produce the parallax effect via data attributes or JavaScript initialization.

Use cases

  • add parallax scrolling background images to a website
  • create spotify-style scrolling hero sections
  • animate background images on scroll with jquery
  • add depth effects to landing page sections
  • implement scroll-based image movement without writing custom code

When to choose

  • your site already uses jQuery (>=1.7)
  • you want a lightweight, data-attribute-driven parallax effect
  • you need a battle-tested plugin with simple setup

When to avoid

  • you use a modern framework like React or Vue without jQuery
  • you need advanced scroll animation or physics-based effects
  • you want a dependency-free vanilla JavaScript solution
