Tier 1 · branded-scroll-progress
Scroll the whole story — the rail keeps your place.
A designed replacement for the scrollbar: a curved-corner rail on the edge fills as you read, and each chapter dot lights the moment you reach it. Every dot is a link — click one to jump.
Chapter 02
Steeped by hand, shaken cold, poured to order.
We steep loose-leaf oolong and jasmine green in small batches every morning, chill it fast, and shake each cup to your sweetness. No powders, no syrups from a box — just tea, cane sugar, and pearls cooked in-house.
As this section scrolls under the reading line, its dot on the rail snaps lit and the fill edge slides down to meet it. That sync isn't guessed — the dot sits at the exact scroll fraction where this chapter begins.
Chapter 04
One cart in 2015. Three neighborhoods today.
We started at a farmers-market corner with a folding table and a cooler of hand-steeped tea. The line wrapped the block by nine. Ten years later the recipe hasn't changed — only the number of doors.
The rail's fill is a truthful meter: it trails your scroll by a measured, feather-light damp, then settles the instant you stop — never a laggy 0.3-second guess.
Chapter 05
Come find us — pour's on us the first time.
Three shops, same leaf, same ice ratio. Order ahead or walk in; the counter's fastest between the morning and lunch rushes. The rail just reached its last dot — you've read the whole page.
On a phone, this rail steps aside for the native scrollbar (no battery-burning loop); with reduced motion it stays a still, honest indicator with nothing that pops or glides.
