Overview
The parallax effect is a modern web design technique where the background element scrolls slower than the foreground content. The parallax effect can be used on landing pages, long-form content, sales pages, or the homepage of a business website. It is a great way to highlight different sections on a lengthy page.
You can easily create a parallax section with this plugin.
