Can anyone reccomend a parallax framework (see image in description)?

Hi all,

I want to build the following site: https://www.dropbox.com/s/pee4nigp0oghfe2/Screen%20Shot%202016-06-15%20at%2012.48.48.png?dl=0

See the part circled in red. Can anyone reccomend a front-end framework that has this kind of parallax navigation design?

I also want the first parallax section to take up the entire screen size, until the user scrolls down, like in this website: http://www.kincola.com/#intro

how do I do this?

You asked something very similar 2 days ago. I'll recap my answer:

What you highlighted doesn't appear to be directly associated with parallax design. Those are "navigation buttons" that are usually connected to a "slider" or "carousel" display. They remain at a specific location on the window by using the "position: fixed" CSS property. They are easily coded directly (probably covered in one or more Treehouse courses), and I believe they are also a feature of the Bootstrap framework.

The Kincola site you linked to seems to rely on a 3rd party design product called Squarespace.

There are a number of libraries to assist with creating parallax effects, including Scrollr, Stellar, Jarallax, scrollMagic, Parallax.js, and scrollReveal.js.

Thanks for your response two days ago. I saw that, but what I'm asking is: do you know of a specific frontend framework that has those "navigation buttons." And do you know of a front end framework that I can use to build the Kincola site myself, without having to use squarespace. Thanks again!
