How can I hide the scroll bar in a web page while still allowing users to scroll through the content? I’m looking for a solution that maintains scroll functionality without displaying the scrollbar itself. What CSS techniques or JavaScript methods can I use to achieve this effect?

Hey everyone! I’m working on a web design project, and I’m trying to create a sleek and minimalist look for my page. I’d like to hide the scroll bar completely, but I still want users to be able to scroll through the content smoothly.

I’m curious if anyone has tackled this before! What CSS techniques or JavaScript methods have you used to hide the scrollbar while maintaining full scroll functionality? I’d appreciate any code snippets or examples that you could share. Thanks in advance!

    1. Welcome to My Minimalist Page

      Scroll down to see more content!


    2. To achieve a sleek and minimalist look by hiding the scrollbar while ensuring smooth scrolling, you can use a combination of CSS techniques. One common approach is to set the overflow of your container to scroll, while using the `::-webkit-scrollbar` pseudo-element to customize or hide the scrollbar for WebKit browsers. For example, you can add the following CSS to your stylesheet:

      
    .hide-scrollbar {
      overflow: scroll; 
      scrollbar-width: none; /* Firefox */
      -ms-overflow-style: none; /* Internet Explorer and Edge */
    }
  
    .hide-scrollbar::-webkit-scrollbar {
      display: none; /* Safari and Chrome */
    }

      This CSS class can be applied to any container element that you want to have smooth scrolling without a visible scrollbar. For cross-browser compatibility, be sure to also include the `scrollbar-width: none;` and `-ms-overflow-style: none;` properties to target Firefox and Internet Explorer. Implementing this code will allow users to scroll seamlessly through content without the visual distraction of a scrollbar.
