Documentation

Pin.js

Finally a dependency free Pin plugin!

Pin.js pins (duh) your elements as you scroll.

It works on all standard modern browsers, and also supports mobile devices smoothly! (Safari on IOS and Chrome on Android)

Install

You can install it using Bower

bower install pin.js

Or you can clone/download the project.

Usage

With JS

1 - Import the pin.js script

<script src="bower_components/pin.js/dist/pin.min.js"></script>

2 - Setup an element

<div id="pin"></div>

3 - Pin it!

new Pin('#pin');

// You can use a DOM reference as well
new Pin(document.getElementById('pin'));

Without JS

1 - Import the pin.js script

<script src="bower_components/pin.js/dist/pin.min.js"></script>

2 - Setup an element with a data-pin attribute

<div id="pin" data-pin></div>

3 - After that you have to... wait! there's no step 3 😄

You can use query selector to pin an element, but it'll take only the first element on the query.

Methods

destroy

If you want to disable the pin effect, use this method and it will unbind all events attached to window like scroll and resize.
