Why Designers & Developer Love This ?

This chapter you don't want your designer to see 🙂

Few years ago you had to actually scroll, search and click a content to watch but Now a days, you just have to scroll to watch any video content on Youtube , Instagram and Other Streaming Platforms .

The UI designers adjust to the resulting behavioral change by offering pages and apps that are easy to scroll.

Traditionally web interactiveness revolved around mouse movement and clicks. Hovering over a button animated it, and clicking — caused a help drawer to open.

But with more content displayed in a form of a long page, there is no need for so many buttons, and less space for interactiveness.

That’s why designers decide to implement effects based on the scroll actions.

How Parallax Is Created

The part you may want to show to the designer 🙂

Such effects, done with JavaScript, track scroll position of the page and incorporate additional animations during the process of scrolling.

The process is much easier when using JavaScript libraries like lax.js.

But even though using it, it often requires a substantial amount of manual mathematical and even physical calculations.
