Summary - This quick tutorial will teach you how to add a custom scrollbar to your site.
Step #1 - The first step is to add the following lines of code to edit your websites scrollbar. The Webkit - scrollbar pseudo element lets us change the appearance of the scrollbar. This example below creates a thin grey scrollbar.
/* width */
::-webkit-scrollbar {
width: 10px;
}
/* Track */
::-webkit-scrollbar-track {
background: #f1f1f1;
}
/* Handle */
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb {
background: #888;
}
/* Handle on hover */
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb:hover {
background: #555;
}
Step #2 - You can add the following pseudo element selectors to further change the appearance of the scrollbar. You can play around and change these until you find something that you enjoy.
::-webkit-scrollbar-button are the buttons on the scrollbar
::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb is the scrollbar handle that is draggable.
::-webkit-scrollbar-track is the progress bar of the scrollbar.
::-webkit-scrollbar-track-piece is the progress bar that is NOT covered by the handle.
::-webkit-scrollbar-corner is the bottom corner of the scrollbar where the horizontal and vertical scrollbars meet.
::-webkit-resizer is the draggable resizing handle that appears at the bottom corner of some elements.
