A React library providing <Sticky> and <StickyContainer> components that keep UI elements affixed to the viewport while scrolling. It computes positions and passes style and state props to a render callback.

Use cases

• make a navbar stick to the top of the page while scrolling
• create a sticky sidebar in a two-column layout
• keep a header visible during scroll in a React app
• stack multiple sticky elements on top of each other
• limit sticky behavior to a container's bounds

When to choose

• you need sticky elements in older browsers lacking CSS position: sticky support, such as IE11
• you need programmatic control over sticky state and positioning in React
• you're already on React 15.3+ with a legacy codebase

When to avoid

• starting a new project - the library is no longer maintained
• your target browsers support CSS position: sticky, which is faster and simpler
• you need active support, bug fixes, or compatibility with the latest React versions
