SCROLLAR

Scrollar is a super lightweight and awesome vanilla javascript parallax library.

Why use Scrollar?

Scrollar focuses on the ***original position*** of elements unlike many other parallax libraries.

If you use other libraries, parallax elements often **disappear** out of its original place and you have to manually adjust the position to make the elements appear in the place you want.

However, with Scrollar, all elements will smoothly scroll according to its original position so that you **DON'T** have to worry about manual positioning or other screen supports.
