iScroll 5

iScroll was born in 2008 to fill the lack of native scrolling in the mobile webkit (at the time iPhone only) browser. Time has passed, mobile browsers are getting better and a javascript scroller is becoming less relevant. That’s the reason why iScroll is not just a scroller for mobile anymore but a cross browser solution to interact with DOM elements. It now supports not only touch events but also pointers, key presses, remote controls and of course the good old mouse.
