Scroll Spy

Auto-generated "On this page" navigation that tracks every heading currently on screen. Powers the right rail of every UI Library doc page, plus the sticky collapsible bar you see on mobile.

Default

Point it at a container; ScrollSpy finds h2-h6 inside and renders a nav. Every heading that is visible lights up at once, and the rail spans the whole range. Nested headings indent and the rail bends across to meet them.

Accessibility

Keyboard shortcuts and ARIA behavior.

  • Renders a plain list of anchors, so headings stay reachable with Tab and are announced as links.
  • The mobile trigger is a collapsible button with aria-expanded; its progress ring exposes role="progressbar".
  • Pair it with a scroll-margin-top on your headings so the sticky header does not cover the target after a jump.
