November 25, 2018design tips

The Current State of Styling Scrollbars

November 22, 2018design tips

If you need to style your scrollbars right now, one option is to use a collection of ::webkit prefixed CSS properties.

See the Pen CSS-Tricks Almanac: Scrollbars by Chris Coyier (@chriscoyier) on CodePen.

Sadly, that doesn’t help out much for Firefox or Edge, or the ecosystem of browsers around those.

But if that’s good enough for what you need, you can get rather classy with it:

State of Houdini (Chrome Dev Summit 2018)

November 21, 2018design tips

Here’s a great talk by Das Surma where he looks into what Houdini is and how much of it is implemented in browsers.
