Vue Use Active Scroll

Description

Highlight Menu / Sidebar

The Intersection Observer is a powerful API; however, it may not serve as a universal solution for highlighting navigation or sidebar links. Typically, you require the following capabilities:

1. Immediate Link Activation

Ensure that any link clicked becomes highlighted immediately, even if it never intersects with the viewport.

2. Boundary Highlighting

Automatically highlight the first and last links once they reach the top or bottom of the page.

3. Consistent Behavior Across Scroll Speeds

Maintain reliable highlighting regardless of how fast the user scrolls.

4. Click/Hash Navigation Support

Highlight links instantly when a click or hash navigation occurs, especially if smooth scrolling is enabled.

5. Avoid Unnatural Highlighting

Prevent awkward highlighting effects caused by custom easing functions or smooth scrolling animations.

Vue Use Active Scroll addresses these needs by implementing a custom scroll observer that adapts to any scrolling behavior and consistently returns the correct active target.
