WOW.js Build Status

Reveal CSS animation as you scroll down a page. By default, you can use it to trigger animate.css animations. But you can easily change the settings to your favorite animation library.

Advantages:

  • Smaller than other JavaScript parallax plugins, like Scrollorama (they do fantastic things, but can be too heavy for simple needs)
  • Super simple to install, and works with animate.css, so if you already use it, that will be very fast to setup
  • Fast execution and lightweight code: the browser will like it ;-)
  • You can change the settings - see below
