Ethereal by HTML5 UP
html5up.net | @ajlkn
Free for personal and commercial use under the CCA 3.0 license (html5up.net/license)
This is Ethereal, my latest, greatest, and quite possibly most unique template for HTML5 UP.
Since releasing Parallelism 3-4 years ago (!!!), I've been dying to do another side-scrolling
template with more in the way of flexibility/customization potential. The result is this template,
Ethereal, which combines a robust side-scrolling framework of my own creation (with various
"scroll-assist" features like drag/momentum scrolling, keyboard shortcuts, etc.) with a unique
look and feel, a lightbox gallery, tons of customization options, and, of course, full
responsiveness. Hope you dig it :)

you can use for pretty much whatever.

Instructions:
Overview
========
Browsers deal with side-scrolling pages differently to vertically-oriented ones in
that they require elements (or at the very least, the top-most wrapper element) to
have a defined (fixed) width. This leads to a number of limitations (eg. the page
won't automatically grow/shrink in the same way a vertically-oriented one will), so
Ethereal does two things to work around this:
- The entire page is made up of "panel" elements, each of which can be assigned an
optional "size" modifier (satisfying the fixed width requirement).
- For panels that don't use a size modifier, individual containing elements *inside*
them (eg. a column) can be assigned a "span" modifier to give those a fixed width
instead (also satisfying the fixed width requirement).
Another fun quirk of side-scrolling pages is how to actually implement horizontal
scrolling *without* resorting to using the (usually ugly) horizontal scrollbar.
Ethereal does this in FOUR (!) ways:
- Dragging: Users can simply click and drag the page left or right to scroll it around.
This works exactly as you'd expect, and even has a nice "post-scroll momentum" effect.
- Scroll Wheel: Ethereal modifies* the scroll wheel's behavior to translate vertical
scrolling into horizontal scrolling, allowing the user to use either the scroll wheel
or trackpad to scroll the page (the latter of which retains the ability to horziontally
scroll as normal, so nothing changes there).
* Special thanks to @miorel + @pieterv of Facebook for "normalizeWheel()" :)
- Scroll Zones: Users can hover the mouse cursor on the left or right edges of the page
to automatically scroll in either direction.
- Keyboard Shortcuts: Finally, users can simply use the left/right arrows, page up/down,
home/end, and the spacebar to scroll the page.
Note that any (or all) of these scroll-assist features can be turned off (and in some
cases customized). See the top of assets/js/main.js for more information.
Span Modifiers
==============
Span modifiers are simply classes that give elements a fixed width, the size of which
is determined by the "unit value" associated with the modifier (eg. "span-3" means
"span 3 units"). These sizes are in "rem" units when used inside panels that don't
use a size modifier, and in percentage units when used inside panels that do.
Ethereal includes span modifiers ranging from 0.25 units ("span-0-25") to 10 units
("span-10"). Here's a partial list:
span-0-25 Span 0.25 units.
span-0-5 Span 0.5 units.
span-0-75 Span 0.75 units.
span-1 Span 1 unit.
span-1-25 Span 1.25 units.
span-1-5 Span 1.5 units.
span-1-75 Span 1.75 units.
...
span-9 Span 9 units.
span-9-25 Span 9.25 units.
span-9-5 Span 9.5 units.
span-9-75 Span 9.75 units.
span-10 Span 10 units.
Major Elements
==============
Most of Ethereal's elements are pretty much what you'd expect, but there are a handful
of "major" ones that warrant a bit more explanation:
Panel
------
The primary building block of Ethereal.
HTML
<section class="panel (size modifier) (color modifier)">
<div class="intro (color modifier)">
(intro content)
</div>
<div class="inner (inner modifiers) (color modifier)">
(inner content)
</div>
</section>
Note: The entire "intro" child element can be excluded.
Note: You can have as many "intro" and "inner" child elements as you like.
Modifiers
Size
small Use small size.
medium Use medium size.
large Use large size.
Color
color0 Use background color 0 (gradient).
color1 Use background color 1.
color2 Use background color 2.
color3 Use background color 3.
color4 Use background color 4.
color1-alt Use background color 1 (alt).
color2-alt Use background color 2 (alt).
color3-alt Use background color 3 (alt).
color4-alt Use background color 4 (alt).
Inner
columns Divides child elements into columns.
aligned When used with "columns", aligns content to top of panel.
divided When used with "columns", separates each column with a vertical line.
Examples
Here's a very basic example:
<section class="panel medium color0">
<div class="intro">
<h2 class="major">Panel</h2>
<p>Just a generic panel.</p>
</div>
<div class="inner">
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.</p>
</div>
</section>
And here's a more advanced example using columns and *no* size modifier:
<section class="panel color2">
<div class="intro">
<h2 class="major">Panel</h2>
<p>Just a generic panel.</p>
</div>
<div class="inner columns">
<div class="span-4">
<p>This column is 4 units wide.</p>
</div>
<div class="span-3">
<p>This column is 3 units wide.</p>
</div>
<div class="span-2">
<p>This column is 2 units wide.</p>
</div>
</div>
</section>
Note: The "intro" child element already has a fixed width, so a span modifier
isn't required.
Panel (Banner)
--------------
The "Banner" variant of a regular panel.
HTML
<section class="panel banner (size modifier) (color modifier) (orientation modifier)">
<div class="content (color modifier)">
(content)
</div>
<div class="image (image modifiers)" data-position="(image position modifier)">
<img src="(image URL)" alt="" />
</div>
</section>
Modifiers
Orientation

<section class="panel spotlight (size modifier) (orientation modifier)">
<div class="content (span modifier)">
(content)
</div>
<div class="image (image modifiers)" data-position="(image position modifier)">

</div>
</section>
Gallery
-------
A lightbox-enabled gallery.
HTML
<div class="gallery">
<a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)">
<img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" />
</a>
<a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)">
<img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" />
</a>
<a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)">
<img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" />
</a>
<div class="group (span modifier)">
<a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)">
<img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" />
</a>
<a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)">
<img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" />
</a>
<a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)">
<img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" />
</a>
<a href="(full image URL)" class="image (image modifiers) (span modifier)" data-position="(image position modifier)">
<img src="(thumbnail image URL)" alt="" />
</a>
...
</div>
...
</div>
Note: The "group" element creates a dual-row group of images. Images inside this group will
automatically wrap to the next row when they exceed its width (as defined by its span modifier).
You can have as many groups in a gallery as you like.
