Jquery – Fade in fixed footer relative to scroll

How do I fade in footer on scroll?

I’ve found a few different ways to do this but interested if anyone knows a way I can do it thats more responsive to the scroll position.

I’m trying to create a parallax effect and fade the fixed footer in behind the content container on scroll.

I’ve added the desired effect with the header
jsfiddle

Javascript for header

$(document).ready(function(){
   $(window).scroll(function(){
      $(".intro").css("opacity", 1 - $(window).scrollTop() / $('.intro').height());
   });
});

    The logic for the footer is similar to that of the header.

    You need to find the distance to the bottom of the scrolling container.

    We know:

    • Once this value is 0, the opacity should be 1
    • if this value is larger than the height of the footer, then the opacity should be zero
    • the opacity should be interpolated in between

    So we can come up with the simple formula:
    opacity = 1 - scrollBottom / height of footer

    $(document).ready(function(){
  $(window).scroll(function(){
    $(".intro").css(
      "opacity", 
      1 - $(window).scrollTop() / $('.intro').height()
     );    

    const scrollBottom = $(document).height() - $(window).height() - $(window).scrollTop();
    const opacity = 1 - scrollBottom/$(".outro").height();
    $(".outro").css("opacity", opacity);
  });
});
    header {
  background: pink;
  height: 100px;
  width: 100%;
  padding: 20px;
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  z-index: 2;
}
.container {
  background: white;
  padding: 30px;
  padding-top: 140px;
  position: relative;
  z-index: 1;
  margin-bottom: 100px;
}
footer {
  width: 100%;
  height: 100px;
  background: blue;
  position: fixed;
  bottom: 0;
  z-index: 0;
  color: white;
  transition: opacity 75ms linear;
}
body {
  margin: 0px;
}

    You can try this approach for more smooth transition.

    window.addEventListener("scroll", function () {
    const scrollPosition = window.scrollY; // Scroll position
    const windowHeight = window.innerHeight; // height of window
    const bodyHeight = document.body.clientHeight;  // body content height
   });
   const remainingDistance = bodyHeight - (scrollPosition + windowHeight); //Calculating the remaining distance
const opacity = Math.max(0, 1 - remainingDistance * opacityDecreaseFactor);
footer.style.opacity = opacity.toFixed(2);
