This is a simple React application that demonstrates how to create a smooth scroll-to-top button that appears when a specific element is in view. It uses the Intersection Observer API to detect when an element becomes visible on the screen.
This application showcases the usage of the Intersection Observer API in a React application. The main functionality is the smooth scroll-to-top button that becomes visible when a certain element is in view. This element, when clicked, smoothly scrolls the page to the top.
You can see a live application demo here.
You can also try out this React application on StackBlitz, an online development environment for web applications. Follow these steps to get started:
-
Open Project in StackBlitz: Click on the following link to open the project in StackBlitz: Open in StackBlitz
-
Preview the Application: Once the StackBlitz project has loaded, you will see a live preview of the React application. The "Hello LinkedIn!" heading will be visible along with the scrollable content.
-
Interact with the Scroll Button: As you scroll down the page, the "Scroll Me Top" button will become visible on the right side. This button allows you to smoothly scroll back to the top of the page. It appears when the "Hello LinkedIn!" heading is no longer visible in the viewport.
-
Explore and Modify: Feel free to explore the codebase, make changes to the styles in
style.css, and experiment with the smooth scrolling behavior. StackBlitz allows you to make changes and see the results in real time.
The provided application demonstrates a simple and effective way to achieve smooth scrolling behavior within a React application. Whether you're running the project locally or using StackBlitz, enjoy experimenting with this feature!
