Configuration Options

Option	Type	Default	Description
`lerp`	Number	`0.1`	Smoothness of scroll (0-1). Lower values result in smoother scrolling.

`smoothTouch`	Boolean	`true`	Enable smooth touch/trackpad scrolling.
`scrollbarWidth`	String	`'10px'`	Width of the custom scrollbar.
`scrollbarColor`	String	`'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5)'`	Color of the custom scrollbar.

Methods

destroy(): Removes all event listeners and resets scroll behavior.
scrollTo(target, options): Scroll to a specific position or element.
- target: Accepts a selector, an HTMLElement, or a number.
- options: Configuration for the scroll behavior (e.g., duration).

Example: Scroll to a Specific Element

const tatvaScroll = new TatvaScroll();

// Scroll to an element with an ID
tatvaScroll.scrollTo('#target-element');
