It is useful for creating modals, full-screen menus, or other overlay components where you want to prevent background scrolling while the overlay is active.

What are react-remove-scroll-bar's main functionalities?

Remove scroll bar from the entire page

This code sample demonstrates how to remove the scroll bar from the entire page by simply including the <RemoveScrollBar /> component in your application.

import { RemoveScrollBar } from 'react-remove-scroll-bar';

function App() {
  return (
    <>
      <RemoveScrollBar />
      {/* rest of your application */}
    </>
  );
}

Remove scroll bar with gap compensation

This code sample shows how to remove the scroll bar and compensate for the gap that might be left using the 'margin' mode, which adjusts the margin of the body element to fill the space where the scroll bar was.

import { RemoveScrollBar } from 'react-remove-scroll-bar';

function App() {
  return (
    <>
      <RemoveScrollBar gapMode='margin' />
      {/* rest of your application */}
    </>
  );
}

Readme

Source

react-remove-scroll-bar

Removes scroll bar (by setting overflow: hidden on body), and preserves the scroll bar "gap".

Read - it just makes scroll bar invisible.

Does nothing if scroll bar does not consume any space.

Usage

import {RemoveScrollBar} from 'react-remove-scroll-bar';

<RemoveScrollBar /> -> no scroll bar

Dynamic scrollbars

adding a dynamic propertly on RemoveScrollBar would make it reactive to window resize. Without it once removed scrollbar will replaced by a gap, even if scrollbar is not needed anymore. You dont need this option in normal cases.

The Right Border

To prevent content jumps position:fixed elements with right:0 should have additional classname applied. It will just provide a non-zero right, when it needed, to maintain the right "gap".

import {zeroRightClassName,fullWidthClassName} from 'react-remove-scroll-bar';

// to set `right:0` on an element
<div className={zeroRightClassName} />

// to set `width:100%` on an element
<div className={fullWidthClassName} />

Size

500b after compression (excluding tslib).
