Use parallax cautiously

Parallax scrolling creates an illusion of depth by moving background elements slower than foreground content during page scrolling. While this effect adds visual interest, it can trigger serious issues for users with epilepsy or vestibular disorders by creating disorienting motion patterns that affect spatial perception.

Beyond accessibility concerns, parallax scrolling presents several technical challenges. The effect requires complex JavaScript implementations that can impact page performance and loading times. Browser support varies significantly, creating inconsistent experiences across platforms. Mobile and responsive implementations become particularly challenging due to different viewport sizes and scrolling behaviors.

Try to avoid the parallax effect, if not limit the effect to small, contained sections rather than full-page implementations. Also, provide clear controls to disable the effect.
