Fixed-sticky
A deprecated polyfill for CSS position: sticky with a safer position: fixed fallback.
What is Fixed-sticky?
Fixed-sticky is a deprecated JavaScript polyfill that implemented CSS `position: sticky` functionality in browsers without native support. It solved the problem of creating elements that stick to the viewport during scroll (like sticky headers) by providing a cross-browser compatible solution, integrating with `fixed-fixed` for a more robust fixed-position fallback.
Frontend developers and web designers who needed to implement sticky UI elements in projects requiring support for older browsers before native `position: sticky` was widely available.
Developers chose Fixed-sticky because it offered a straightforward polyfill that closely mimicked native sticky behavior, with a focus on safety through its integration with `fixed-fixed` to avoid common fixed-position pitfalls, though it is now deprecated due to improving browser support.
