This Vue.Js code snippet helps you to create simple parallax cards with info on the hover effect. It defines a named “card”, which is used to create an interactive card with an image background that rotates and tilts in response to the user’s mouse movement. The component template includes several event listeners that call methods to update the mouse position and apply CSS styles to the card element, and the component also defines props, data, computed properties, and methods to handle these interactions.
Overall, this code sets up a basic Vue app with a custom component that provides an interactive UI element.
Now it’s time to create our project.
How to Create Vue.Js Simple Parallax Cards with Info on Hover
First of all, load the following assets into the head tag of your HTML document.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"><link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/meyer-reset/2.0/reset.min.css"> <link rel='stylesheet' href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Playfair+Display:700|Raleway:500.700'>
Create the HTML structure for the parallax card as follows:
<h1 class="title">Hover over the cards</h1>
<div id="app" class="container">
<card data-image="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1479660656269-197ebb83b540?dpr=2&auto=compress,format&fit=crop&w=1199&h=798&q=80&cs=tinysrgb&crop=">
<h1 slot="header">Canyons</h1>
<p slot="content">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit.</p>
</card>

<h1 slot="header">Lakes</h1>
<p slot="content">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit.</p>

</div>
Now, style the parallax card using the following CSS styles:

Load the following scripts before closing the body tag:
<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/vue/2.0.1/vue.min.js'></script>
Finally, add the following JavaScript function for its functionality:
Vue.config.devtools = true;
Vue.component('card', {
template: `
<div class="card-wrap"
@mousemove="handleMouseMove"
@mouseenter="handleMouseEnter"
@mouseleave="handleMouseLeave"

:style="cardStyle">
<div class="card-bg" :style="[cardBgTransform, cardBgImage]"></div>
<div class="card-info">
<slot name="header"></slot>
<slot name="content"></slot>
</div>
</div>
</div>`,
mounted() {
this.width = this.$refs.card.offsetWidth;
this.height = this.$refs.card.offsetHeight;
},
props: ['dataImage'],
data: () => ({
width: 0,
height: 0,
mouseX: 0,
mouseY: 0,
mouseLeaveDelay: null }),
computed: {
mousePX() {
return this.mouseX / this.width;
},
mousePY() {
return this.mouseY / this.height;
},
cardStyle() {
const rX = this.mousePX * 30;
const rY = this.mousePY * -30;
return {
transform: `rotateY(${rX}deg) rotateX(${rY}deg)` };
},
cardBgTransform() {
const tX = this.mousePX * -40;
const tY = this.mousePY * -40;
return {
transform: `translateX(${tX}px) translateY(${tY}px)` };
},
cardBgImage() {
return {
backgroundImage: `url(${this.dataImage})` };
} },
methods: {
handleMouseMove(e) {
this.mouseX = e.pageX - this.$refs.card.offsetLeft - this.width / 2;
this.mouseY = e.pageY - this.$refs.card.offsetTop - this.height / 2;
},
handleMouseEnter() {
clearTimeout(this.mouseLeaveDelay);
},
handleMouseLeave() {
this.mouseLeaveDelay = setTimeout(() => {
this.mouseX = 0;
this.mouseY = 0;
}, 1000);
} } });
const app = new Vue({
el: '#app' });
