ScrollLock

ScrollLock is a content-free React component for declaratively preventing scroll bleed from modal UI to the page body. This component applies a lockscroll class to the document.documentElement and document.scrollingElement elements to stop the body from scrolling. When it is present, the lock is applied.

const Default = () => {

	const toggleLock = () => setScrollLocked( ! isScrollLocked );

	return (
		<div style={ { height: 1000 } }>

					overflow: 'auto',

					<div>
						Start scrolling down. Once you scroll to the end of this
						container with the stripes, the rest of the page will
						continue scrolling. <code>ScrollLock</code> prevents
						this "scroll bleed" from happening.
