To create a smooth scroll effect in Webflow, you can use CDN (Content Delivery Network) repositories that provide the necessary scripts. These repositories host the script files externally and allow you to easily add them to your Webflow project. Here are some popular CDN repositories that you can use:

  1. CDNJS: CDNJS provides a vast collection of JavaScript libraries and frameworks that can be used in your Webflow project. To create a smooth scroll effect, you can use the smooth-scroll library. To add it to your Webflow project, follow these steps:
  • Visit the CDNJS website (https://cdnjs.com/).
  • Search for "smooth-scroll" and select the latest version of the library.
  • Copy the provided URL for the script file.
  • In your Webflow project, go to the Designer.
  • Open the project settings (gear icon in the left sidebar).
  • In the 'Custom Code' tab, paste the URL in the 'Footer Code' section.
  • Click 'Save' to apply the changes.
  1. jsDelivr: jsDelivr is another popular CDN repository that hosts various JavaScript files. To create a smooth scroll effect, you can use the SmoothScroll script. Here's how you can add it to your Webflow project:
  • Go to the jsDelivr website (https://www.jsdelivr.com/).
  • Search for "smoothscroll" and select the latest version of the script.
  • Copy the provided URL for the script file.
  • In your Webflow project, follow the same steps mentioned earlier to access the project settings.
  • Paste the URL in the 'Footer Code' section of the 'Custom Code' tab.
  • Save the changes.

Using the appropriate CDN library, you can seamlessly integrate smooth scrolling functionality into your Webflow project, providing a better user experience and enhancing the overall aesthetics of your website.
