Stellar.js is a jQuery plugin that adds parallax scrolling effects to any scrolling element via simple data attributes. It repositions elements and background images at configurable speed ratios as the page scrolls.

Use cases

  • add parallax scrolling to a website
  • make background images move at a different speed on scroll
  • create depth effects on a landing page
  • animate elements at custom scroll ratios
  • add parallax effects to horizontal scrolling sections

When to choose

  • you are already using jQuery and need simple parallax effects
  • you want declarative data-attribute-based parallax configuration
  • you need parallax on desktop browsers with legacy jQuery stacks

When to avoid

  • you are starting a modern project without jQuery
  • you need maintained software with active support
  • you need high-performance parallax on mobile WebKit
  • you want modern scroll-animation libraries with better performance
