Creating a custom scrollbar
Recently, I figured out about customizing scrollbars. Adding custom scrollbars to websites you make, helps enhance it even further and also helps in overall color-coordination.
To start with, we use ::-webkit-scrollbar.It can be included in your CSS section. It's a pseudo element used to modify the look of a browser’s scrollbar. Most browsers other than firefox support this.
A sample example of the code would be-
/* width */
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 10px;
}This section targets the width of your scrollbar.
/* Track */
::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
background: #f1f1f1;
}This relates to the progress bar. Properties such as border radius, box shadow can also be added.
/* Handle */
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background: #888;
}It specifies the properties of the scrolling handle that can be dragged.
To design that even further you can try-
