Overview
Parallax_image is a Flutter widget that creates a parallax scrolling effect by moving an image at a slower rate than the surrounding content. This visual technique adds depth and engagement to scrollable interfaces, making it ideal for immersive experiences like cover flows or carousels. The widget seamlessly integrates with ListView and other scrollable components, allowing developers to enhance user interaction through subtle motion. It's lightweight and designed for performance, ensuring smooth animations even on lower-end devices.
