If you are using a module loader (like Webpack) you first need to load SimpleBar:

``js
import SimpleBar from 'simplebar-react';
import 'simplebar-react/dist/simplebar.min.css';

const App = () => (
// your content
);
`

Don't forget to import both css and js in your project!

SimpleBar is not intended to be used on the body element! I don't recommend wrapping your entire web page inside a custom scroll as it will often badly affect the user experience (slower scroll performance compared to the native body scroll, no native scroll behaviours like click on track, etc.). Do it at your own risk! SimpleBar is meant to improve the experience of internal web page scrolling; such as a chat box or a small scrolling area. Please read the caveats section first to be aware of the limitations!

If you are experiencing issues when setting up SimpleBar, it is most likely because your styles are clashing with SimpleBar ones. Make sure the element you are setting SimpleBar on does not override any SimpleBar css properties! We recommend to not style that element at all and use an inner element instead.

#### scrollableNodeProps

You can pass props to the underlying scrollable div element. This is useful for example to get a ref of it, if you want to access the scroll event or apply imperative directive (like scrolling SimpleBar to the bottom, etc.).

`js
const scrollableNodeRef = React.createRef();


// your content
;
`

You can pass a ref to the SimpleBar element:

`js
const ref = useRef();

useEffect(() => {
ref.current.recalculate();
console.log(ref.current.el); // <- the root element you applied SimpleBar on
})


// your content

`

For advanced usage, in some cases (like using react-window) you can forward the scrollable and content elements using a render prop pattern:

`js

{({ scrollableNodeRef, contentNodeRef }) => {
// Now you have access to scrollable and content nodes
return

`js

{({ scrollableNodeProps, contentNodeProps }) => {
return (
