Framer Card Overlap Tutorial (with Matt Jumper)

In this video, Matt Jumper guides you on creating a card overlap scrolling effect in Framer, achieved without writing any code, and in under five minutes. The tutorial utilizes two key features of Framer: the 'Position Type Sticky' and 'Scroll Transform'. Here's the Framer remix link you can use.

The basic layout comprises a desktop stack with a vertical setting, containing three sub-sections: hero, body, and footer stacks. However, in this tutorial, we mainly focus on the body stack, leaving the hero and footer as placeholders.

Within the body stack, we create an 'About' section with a left-right direction, and a gap of 64 pixels. The 'About' section contains a simple text layer and a card stack, which includes individual cards separated by a 24-pixel gap. These cards can be a component, image, or anything else you prefer. Each card is housed in its own stack.

A critical thing to remember is to set all layers and stacks to 'Fill Width' and 'Auto Height', making the design responsive and also ensuring the proper functioning of 'Position Type Sticky'. The 'Auto Height' guarantees that the bottom of the stack aligns with the bottom of the content.

When we change the position type of a stack or layer to 'Sticky', it appears the same as before in the layout, but now it sticks to the top of the screen until the parent stack or container scrolls away. Before making the cards 'Sticky', ensure that all parent stacks have their 'Overflow' set to visible. You can add some top space to avoid the cards sticking directly to the top of the screen.

You can further enhance this effect by adding a 'Scroll Transform' to the second and third cards, causing them to rotate and create a card-stack effect instead of simply overlapping. You can adjust the degree of rotation and transition speed according to your preference.

Key Takeaways:

  • Create a desktop stack with a vertical setting and three sub-stacks: hero, body, and footer.
  • The body stack houses an 'About' section containing a text layer and card stack.
  • Set all layers and stacks to 'Fill Width' and 'Auto Height'.
  • Change the position type of the desired layer to 'Sticky'.
  • Set 'Overflow' to visible for all parent stacks before making cards 'Sticky'.
  • Use 'Scroll Transform' to add rotation to the cards, enhancing the scrolling effect.
