Why 468? about smoothscroll

tbh it's pretty arbitrary. Ideally we would calculate the total scroll diff to make ahead of time and have the SCROLL_TIME be dynamic based upon that.

Yeap, we actually have an issue for that 👉 #13

@iamdustan if I got it right, to get SCROLL_TIME based on scroll distance we need a function (element.getBoundingClientRect().top, window.innerHeight, someConstant) => SCROLL_TIME then.

In this case the someConstant value would be a magic number as well :)

Yeah, that sounds right to me at first glance. It still won’t be a perfect representation of the host platform behavior, but it’ll be closer than what it currently is.

What do you guys think about extending the API to let the callsite overrides the duration if needed?

@thaingnguyen thanks for the suggestion, I will explore a global constant the polyfill can pick up.
