OptimalGaps
Tiny script to find the optimal gaps between elements on viewport resize and make the last element overflow the container so the scrollbar makes sense to be there.
The gaps are calculated so the last element will be overflown for the given pixels or a percentage of it set on the option "offset".
The gaps will shrink in a linear calculation from the point that the container has an horizontal scrollbar, to the point of the "minViewportWidth" option. This linear calculation is the same used in this article of fluid typography
How to use:
import OptimalGaps from "optimalGaps.min.js";
const container = document.querySelector('.container');
const elements = document.querySelectorAll('.element');
const options = {
container,
elements,
offset: '30%',
initialGap: 20,
};
new OptimalGaps(options);Parameters
