Features

Use the data-rellax-speed attribute to set the speed of a .rellax element to something other than the default value (which is -2). A negative value will make it move slower than regular scrolling, and a positive value will make it move faster. We recommend keeping the speed between -10 and 10.

#### Responsive Speed
Use responsive speed attributes for breakpoint levels that require a different speed. Defaults to the data-rellax-speed setting in unspecified breakpoints.

Pass an array of breakpoints (mobile, tablet and desktop respectively).

After some fantastic work from @p-realinho, we just released the ability to center parallax elements in your viewport! We'll be building a nice demo website, but for now check out the tests folder for several examples of how it works.

There's two ways to implement centering, either on specific elements or as a global option.
`html


I’m super fast!! And super centered!!

I’m extra slow and smooth, and hella centered.

If you want to sort your elements properly in the Z space, you can use the data-rellax-zindex property
`html

I’m that default chill speed of "-2" and default z-index of 0

I’m super fast!! And on top of the previous element, I'm z-index 5!!

Horizontal parallax is disabled by default. You can enable it by passing horizontal: true in the settings block.
This feature is intended for panoramic style websites, where users scroll horizontally instead of vertically.
Note that this can work together at the same time with the default vertical parallax. If you do not want this, pass vertical: false in the settings block.

By default, the position of parallax elements is determined via the scroll position of the body. Passing in the wrapper property will tell Rellax to watch that element instead.

Instead of using a className you can use a node, handy when using React and you want to use refs instead of className.
`jsx

{ this.rellaxRef = ref }}>
I’m that default chill speed of "-2"

var rellax = new Rellax(this.rellaxRef)

Development

In the spirit of lightweight javascript, the build processes (thus far) is lightweight also.

1. Open demo.html
2. Make code changes and refresh browser
3. Once feature is finished or bug fixed, use jshint to lint code
4. Fix lint issues then use Google Closure Compiler to minify
5. 🍻
