I'm trying to make a transition effect for my website similar to the one that can be found here when you scroll. I've searched high and low and can't seem to find anything even closely related to it. I've started looking through the code on that webpage but I don't really have the time to scour through nearly 50,000 lines of code and test to find the part that I need. The only difference I would make for my site is that I would like the particles to be circles, not squares. Any help that anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.
The creator of that site it's using Three.js to accomplish that effect. It's not easy to achieve.
These examples might help you but you should learn the basics first.

Sorry if the question is a bit out of place but don't know any better since i'm a complete beginner.
What i'm trying to say is let's take for example this site
https://exp-ion.lusion.co/
I am trying to "decode" what libraries and technologies are used behind the scene so i can learn more about them and try to replicate the same effects.
Is it in any way possible to get "hints" on how things are done?
Tried looking up the source code, tried inspecting various elements. I get that the scene is done using threejs library. What about the scroll ladder? What about the text?
Thank you in advance for any tips and tricks.
You can try Wappalyzer, they have a browser extension you can install that let's you see most of the technologies used in a site.
I've been coming across a lot of websites recently that have a very satisfying friction / momentum-based scrolling effect on them. An example would be https://useplink.com/en/. I've been searching for the correct terminology for this effect for a very long time but I could never find what I was looking for (guides, tutorials, libraries & e.t.c. that could help me understand how it works). If anyone knows what this is correctly referred to as or has any libraries related to it an answer would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Not sure if there is an official name for it, I have heard, momentum scrolling, inertia and kinetic scrolling, on that last one there is a set of 5 good articles here that you can take a look to get a grasp around the concept:

I just came cross an impressive portfolio, which you can see here: https://kulbachny.com/
I was wondering, how did he achieve that 'stretched and blurred' effect when moving the cursor hover his image?
I can imagine it has to do with canvas and maybe Three.js/WebGL (not so sure)(?)
I'd love to achieve the same effect, but I guess that's not so simple..
If you know how to do it, could you please explain how something such this can be built?
And if too long to explain, could you refer to good guides or technologies / libraries to study in order to be able to build this kind of animations?
Thanks a lot
I can't see what his own site is build with. But site's of his portofolio are made with TweenMax Javascript framework. You can look up yourself some TweenMax tutorials.
I need to build a multi-directional JQuery parallax page for a client - they basically want it to work in a similar way to this - https://victoriabeckham.landrover.com/INT
I have the artwork ready and have found many jquery libraries that will allow me to scroll horiz/vertical - but i'm not sure how to combine both together at a specific co-ordinate.
Could anyone please point me in a the right direction?
Edit: I did originally sign this post off having looked into Superscrolarama and thinking all was solved - but having struggled with implementing it - I dont think its quite the saviour I thought it was, I need both horizontal and vertical parallax as well as scrolling to achieve above, which it doesn't seem to support - so any other tips I'd be very grateful for!
I threw something together is jsfiddle for you.
http://jsfiddle.net/9R4hZ/40/
The script initializes the start positions of all of the objects first. Then handlers are set up for arrow key and mouse wheel. After that is the meat of the algorithm in the parallaxScroll function.
It uses the ARROWS or MOUSEWHEEL for scrolling.
There are from [left, right, top, bottom] transitions.
The HTML and CSS are really simple.
The JS/jQuery that runs it is self explanatory.
It's an interesting effect, that seems to be geared for artsy type sites.
Did you look into librairies like Scrollrama http://johnpolacek.github.com/scrollorama/ or Curtain http://curtain.victorcoulon.fr/?
I know in your question you mention that you already looked into different librairies but depending how they work it's difficult to really suggest how to use proper coordinates.
*edit1
If you didn't see it yet, the auther of scrollorama also did superscrollorama which give a bit more controler over the animation for example animation when an element is pinned.

This article in smashinghub.com shows a collection of JQuery plugin for scrolling and parallax effect I'm totally sure one of them will help you.
it looks like jQuery Scroll Path is the most advanced of them or suit your requirements.
I realize I'm jumping in late here, and this might seem ultra obvious, but have you tried reverse engineering what they have done on https://victoriabeckham.landrover.com/INT? It looks like the ScrollAnimator script does a bulk of the work. I would download their site & mess with it locally, subtracting parts until I figured out which components provide which pieces of functionality. Then I would read through those to understand how they made it happen.
you have use scrollpath plugin
make path
If you access your mobile me account online with Safari, you can select an icon and login directly to selected service, great feature btw.
But if you access the same page using other browser like firefox or Chrome, you will see a gorgeous login page with a big, no huge cloud in the middle (the MobileMe logo) and interesting lighballs comming out of it.
Here's the link:
https://auth.me.com/authenticate?service=mail&ssoNamespace=appleid&formID=loginForm&returnURL=aHR0cHM6Ly9tZS5jb20vbWFpbC8=
And the greatest thing is that you can mouse over those little light balls and they follow your mouse movement.
Its just beautiful and i have never seen anything like that in Javascript. And i couldnt understand by looking at their code, how they did it. Of course their javascript is compressed so i couldn't look at it, but in the markup those shiny lights are just a bunch of canvas tags.
Does any one have an idea of how to make something like that? Its probably way beyond my javascript skills but it would be great to add such an effect to one of my projects.
Thanks in advance for all your suggestions ;)
that takes a lot of skills. I believe its achievable with processing.js

Take a look at this [quote]:
So, how is this eye candy accomplished? Through over 6000 lines of
(unminified) JS. MobileMe usually uses SproutCore for its
applications, but after looking through the source code, I didn’t find
a single reference to it. There did appear to be some resemblance of
a library being used in the login page, however, but I think it is
pretty custom. There appeared to be a class for each of the visual
components on the screen, at least one if not two separate animation
libraries (one 2d and one 3d), a particle rendering library, and
libraries for dealing with canvas drawing and DOM manipulation.
So it looks like it was custom made. You can read more here: http://badassjs.com/post/1649735994/the-new-mobileme-login-page-has-some-badass-js
I hope this helps.
