Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Screenshot

use-scroll-position is a React hook that returns the browser viewport X and Y scroll position. It is highly optimized and using the special technics to avoid unnecessary rerenders!

It uses the default react hooks rendering lifecycle, which allows you to fully control its behavior and prevent unnecessary renders.

Important Update Notice

Starting from v1.0.44 the project has moved to typescript.

Also, some bugs have been fixed, and thanks to our contributors we added an option to track the scroll position of specified element inside some custom container.

Just pass the element reference and the boundingElement - (parent container) reference and track their corresponding position! (boundingElement should be scrollable with overflow hidden or whatever)

Demo

Edit use-scroll-position

Install

yarn add @n8tb1t/use-scroll-position

Usage

useScrollPosition(effect,deps, element, useWindow, wait)

| Arguments | Description | | --------- | ----------- | effect | Effect callback. deps | For effects to fire on selected dependencies change. element | Get scroll position for a specified element by reference. useWindow | Use window.scroll instead of document.body.getBoundingClientRect() to detect scroll position. wait | The timeout in ms. Good for performance. boundingElement | Only works with useWindow set to false, Just pass the element reference and the boundingElement - (parent container) reference and track their corresponding position, boundingElement should be scrollable with overflow hidden or whatever

The useScrollPosition returns prevPos and currPos.

Examples

Log current scroll position

import { useScrollPosition } from '@n8tb1t/use-scroll-position'

useScrollPosition(({ prevPos, currPos }) => {
  console.log(currPos.x)
  console.log(currPos.y)
})

Change state based on scroll position - Inline CSS

import React, { useState } from 'react'
import { useScrollPosition } from '@n8tb1t/use-scroll-position'

const [headerStyle, setHeaderStyle] = useState({
  transition: 'all 200ms ease-in'
})

useScrollPosition(
  ({ prevPos, currPos }) => {
    const isVisible = currPos.y > prevPos.y

    const shouldBeStyle = {
      visibility: isVisible ? 'visible' : 'hidden',
      transition: `all 200ms ${isVisible ? 'ease-in' : 'ease-out'}`,
      transform: isVisible ? 'none' : 'translate(0, -100%)'
    }

    if (JSON.stringify(shouldBeStyle) === JSON.stringify(headerStyle)) return

    setHeaderStyle(shouldBeStyle)
  },
  [headerStyle]
)

const Header = <header style={{ ...headerStyle }} />

Change state based on scroll position - Styled Components

import React, { useState } from 'react'
import { useScrollPosition } from '@n8tb1t/use-scroll-position'

const [hideOnScroll, setHideOnScroll] = useState(true)

useScrollPosition(({ prevPos, currPos }) => {
  const isShow = currPos.y > prevPos.y
  if (isShow !== hideOnScroll) setHideOnScroll(isShow)
}, [hideOnScroll])

Get scroll position for custom element

  const [elementPosition, setElementPosition] = useState({ x: 20, y: 150 })
  const elementRef = useRef()

    // Element scroll position
  useScrollPosition(
    ({ currPos }) => {
      setElementPosition(currPos)
    }, [], elementRef
  )

Why to use

use-scroll-position returns the scroll position of the browser window, using a modern, stable and performant implementation.

Most of the time scroll listeners do very expensive work, such as querying dom elements, reading height / width and so on. use-scroll-position solves this by using throttling technic to avoid too many reflows (the browser to recalculate everything).
