Enhancement: Unnecessary Vertical Scrollbar Appears on https://json-schema.org/docs

[Deepak-cell311]

On the https://json-schema.org/docs page of the JSON Schema website.

Issue:

When opening pages like the one shown in the attached screenshot, the left sidebar (Reference section) and the right side of the viewport both show visible vertical scrollbars, the page doesn’t initially fit within the viewport, so the appearance of the scrollbar is expected and justified. However, my intention is to allow scrolling behavior without showing the visible scrollbar, in order to enhance the visual polish of the UI — especially in dark mode.

Goal:

The goal is to retain the scrolling functionality while hiding the scrollbars, creating a smoother and cleaner appearance

Hey @Deepak-cell311 , can you elaborate a bit more about the issue? If I am not wrong, the page which you mentioned doesn't gets fit initially within the viewport, so I think a scrollbar is justifying this case.

Yes, you're absolutely right — the page doesn't initially fit within the viewport, so the scrollbar appears as expected. However, my intention is to hide the scrollbar while still allowing the scrolling behavior to work.

Got it. So I think you need to modify your issue description first because it isn't clear enough. Also before raising a PR, please wait and let maintainers assign this issue to you.
