Scrollorama is a jQuery plugin for creating scroll-driven animations on web pages, supporting transitions on any numeric CSS property, pinning, parallax, and easing. It is no longer actively developed; its successor is ScrollMagic.
Use cases
- animate elements as the user scrolls down a page
- create parallax scrolling effects
- pin and unpin content blocks during scroll
- fade in, fly in, rotate, or zoom elements on scroll
- trigger callbacks when the user scrolls to a new section
When to choose
- maintaining a legacy jQuery site that already uses Scrollorama
- learning how scroll-based animation plugins work
When to avoid
- starting a new project - use ScrollMagic or GSAP ScrollTrigger instead
- needing actively maintained, well-tested software
- building modern frameworks like React or Vue
