Scrolling is the action of moving content up or down on a digital screen, typically using a mouse, touchpad, or touchscreen. This allows users to view more information than what is currently visible in a single screen view. Scrolling is commonly used in applications like web browsers, social media platforms, and document viewers.
There are two main types of scrolling: vertical and horizontal. Vertical scrolling moves content up and down, while horizontal scrolling shifts it left and right. Both methods help users navigate through large amounts of data, such as articles, images, or lists, enhancing the overall user experience on devices like smartphones and computers.
