Quick start

After installing headroom.js. The following JS will create and initialise a headroom instance:

import Headroom from "headroom.js";

// select your header or whatever element you wish
const header = document.querySelector("header");

const headroom = new Headroom(header);
headroom.init();

Then you can add the following CSS to your page:

.headroom {
  will-change: transform;
  transition: transform 200ms linear;
}
.headroom--pinned {
  transform: translateY(0%);
}
.headroom--unpinned {
  transform: translateY(-100%);
}

You should now see your header slide in and out in response to the user's scroll.
