BoxParallaxScroll().init();

Options

// Default values
BoxParallaxScroll({
  identifier: ".parallax-element",
  strechFactor: 0.2
}).init();

• identifier: [string]
  • Identify which elements should be parallaxed
• strechFactor: [float] [0 to 1]
  • Strength of parallax / How much the element should be parallaxed with the scroll. Can be any value from 0 to 1

Under the hood

BoxParallaxScroll creates a wrapper with the class .wrapper and sets the parallaxable element as it’s child.

Achieve the shown example gifs effect

/* Use this for the images you want to parallax */
.parallax-element{
  object-fit: cover; // Fixes image ratio
}
