How do I optimize performance for long pages?

The skill advises using the 'data-scroll-section' attribute to segment the page, allowing the library to calculate positions more efficiently by only tracking elements within the active section.

Can I use GSAP ScrollTrigger with Locomotive Scroll?

Yes, the skill provides a specific integration pattern using a scroller proxy to sync Locomotive's smooth scroll position with GSAP's animation triggers.

How do I fix elements with position: fixed when using smooth scroll?

Since smooth scrolling often uses CSS transforms on the container, standard fixed positioning breaks; the skill recommends using the 'data-scroll-sticky' attribute or placing fixed elements outside the scroll container.

How does Locomotive Scroll handle accessibility and reduced motion?

The skill includes best practices for detecting the 'prefers-reduced-motion' media query to disable smooth scrolling automatically for users who require standard browser behavior.
