Stickybits is a tiny (~1kb, zero-dependency) JavaScript library that makes elements stick vertically on scroll, serving as a lightweight alternative to position: sticky polyfills. It adds CSS classes like .js-is-sticky and .js-is-stuck when elements become sticky or stuck, and prefers native position: sticky when supported.

Use cases

• make a header stick to the top of the page on scroll
• sticky sidebar navigation while scrolling
• avoid jumpiness of position: fixed based plugins
• add CSS classes when an element becomes stuck
• cross-browser sticky element behavior without heavy polyfills

When to choose

• you need sticky elements with a tiny footprint and no dependencies
• you want CSS class hooks for sticky/stuck states
• you need consistent sticky behavior across older browsers

When to avoid

• you only target modern browsers that fully support position: sticky
• you need complex scroll-driven animations or parallax effects
• the project is in maintenance mode and moved to yowainwright/stickybits
