It mimics the parallax effect seen in interfaces like iOS dock or macOS launchpad, creating an engaging, 3D-like visual experience on mouse hover or touch. Easy to implement with minimal setup, it enhances user interaction and adds subtle dynamism to static designs. Customize its behavior through options like scaling, glare, and axis limitation for tailored effects. Compatible with most modern browsers.
