Get ready for depth scrolling
<p>While new products, apps and experiences resulting from VisionPro are almost boundless, I’m just as excited about how it will affect the work we’re already doing. Specifically, how we design websites going forward and the layering of our UI elements with <a href="https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_pos_z-index.php" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">Z-index</a> or similar HTML/CSS/JS features.</p>
<p>I’m no web developer, so I’ll leave the technical side of the discussion to the experts, but as a UX professional, I’m absolutely thrilled at the idea of <strong>depth scrolling</strong> and to consider it more in my work.</p>
<h2>Depth Scrolling</h2>
<p>Web design has been relegated to 2 dimensions until now: up & down/height (Y) or side to side /width (X). We’ve seen some gorgeous websites come and go over the years (<a href="https://www.apple.com/airpods-pro/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">often Apple Product pages</a>) allowing the users to feel like they’re “going inside” the experience — zooming into a landscape, exploding the innards of a product, etc. — but it’s still assuming the same scrolling behavior of going up and down or side to side with a mouse, trackpad or finger, and limited by two dimensions of a screen.</p>
<p>I’m eager to dig into how we design for the 3rd dimension - depth (Z) - for the web in a totally new way. <strong>How will we craft sites where we can “scroll into” the third dimension?</strong></p>
