SimpleBar is a lightweight (6kb) vanilla JavaScript library that replaces the browser's default scrollbar with a custom CSS-styled one while preserving native scrolling behavior and performance. It ships framework adapters for React, Angular, and Vue and works across all major browsers including IE11.
Use cases
- style custom scrollbars with css
- replace default browser scrollbar appearance
- custom scrollbar without losing native scroll performance
- add custom scrollbars to a react app
- cross-browser scrollbar styling including ie11
- lightweight scrollbar library with no dependencies
When to choose
- you want custom scrollbar visuals but need native scroll behavior and performance
- you need a tiny, dependency-free scrollbar solution
- you need consistent scrollbar styling across browsers including IE11
- you use React, Vue, or Angular and want a ready-made adapter
When to avoid
- you need custom scroll behavior like momentum or programmatic smooth scrolling rather than just styling
- your target browsers support modern CSS scrollbar styling natively
- you need a full custom scroll implementation with virtualization or infinite scroll built in
