Overview

Use this code when your page shows a horizontal scrollbar even though the layout looks normal.

This usually happens when an element stretches a few pixels beyond the screen because of margins, positioning, fixed widths, or animations.

The snippet hides that overflow and keeps the layout locked to the viewport.

It works well, but it’s still a patch.

You should track down the element causing the issue and fix it properly.
