scrollbar-color

A modern, standard way to change the colors of a scrollbar's 'thumb' (the moving part) and 'track' (the background). It's much simpler than the old webkit pseudo-elements.

Quick example

.custom-scroll {
  scrollbar-color: #888 #eee;
  /* sets the scrollbar thumb to gray and the track to light gray */
}
