## What it is
A tiny (1.71kb gzipped) jQuery plugin that adds a 60+fps parallax tilt hover effect to elements using requestAnimationFrame. It supports configurable options like glare, scale, axis locking, and data-attribute configuration.

## Use cases
- add a 3d tilt hover effect to cards
- create parallax hover animations with jquery
- add glare effect on hover
- make elements pop out with preserve-3d transforms
- tilt images or panels on mouseover

## When to choose
- your project already uses jQuery
- you need a lightweight, dependency-minimal tilt effect
- you want configurable tilt via data attributes

## When to avoid
- your project does not use jQuery (use vanilla-tilt.js instead)
- you use React, Angular, or Preact (framework-specific ports exist)
- you need actively developed features

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: animation, ui-components
- domain: frontend, web-development, web-design
- platform: browser
- tags: jquery-plugin, tilt-effect, parallax, hover-effects, 3d-transforms, nodejs
