A scrolling effect where background elements move slower than foreground elements, creating an illusion of depth. Parallax adds visual interest and engagement but can impact performance and cause motion sickness. Use parallax sparingly and provide reduced-motion alternatives for accessibility. See Creating parallax with Scroll Speed in Framer.

CSS operations that modify element geometry—translate, rotate, scale, skew—without affecting document flow. Transforms are hardware-accelerated for smooth performance and power many animation effects. Combine transforms for complex visual manipulations.
