Flip Scroll

A scrollable component that displays images with 3D flip animations as you scroll. Each image flips to reveal a back face, creating an engaging card-flipping effect that responds to scroll position.

Install dependencies

npm i framer-motion     

Component

Create a file flip-scroll.tsx in your components folder and paste this code

'use client';

import React, { useRef } from 'react';
import Image from 'next/image';
import { motion, MotionValue, useScroll, useTransform } from 'framer-motion';

      style={{
        transform: 'rotateY(180deg) translateZ(-1px)',
        backfaceVisibility: 'hidden'
      }}
    >
      ?
    </div>
