Parallax Stacked Cards

Transform the way you present case studies or key features with the Parallax Stacked Cards widget. This design breaks free from the monotony of standard grids by utilizing a depth-based stacking context that mimics physical cards sitting on a desk. When the user interacts with the container, the cards elegantly fan out, revealing the content hidden beneath the top layer. This interaction creates a delightful sense of discovery and playfulness that encourages users to pause and engage with your content longer.

The widget is built with performance in mind, using hardware-accelerated CSS transforms to ensure buttery smooth animations on both high-end desktops and mobile devices. It is particularly effective for creative portfolios, photography showcases, or product lines where you want to group related items together without cluttering the viewport. By stacking elements, you maximize screen real estate while still providing a path to deep-dive into specific details. The visual hierarchy is established instantly, with the top card demanding attention and the underlying cards providing subtle visual cues of more content to come. This architectural approach to UI design is a hallmark of modern, award-winning websites.
