Section Reveal on Scroll

Code Toolkit
Written By Squarestylist Support

What You'll Create

A cinematic scroll effect where the first section acts as a cover that reveals the rest of the page content beneath it. Creates a dramatic unveiling experience as users scroll.

The Problem It Solves

Standard page scrolling shows content sequentially. When you want a hero section to feel like lifting a curtain or revealing hidden content, you need JavaScript to create a layered reveal effect with fixed positioning.

Perfect For

Portfolio reveals, Product launches, Story-driven pages, Creative agency sites, Dramatic landing pages

What Makes This Different

This advanced technique clones page sections into two layers: a fixed cover (first section + header) and a scrollable underneath layer. JavaScript synchronizes scroll position between the layers for a seamless reveal effect. Includes mobile fallback.
