Show HN: A comic/webtoon reader with CSS scroll-snap, vanilla JavaScript

A developer going by EditArteSoy posted a browser-based comic and webtoon reader to Hacker News on August 30, 2026, under the Show HN tag, per the HN listing. The project is hosted at a Netlify demo and relies entirely on CSS scroll-snap and vanilla JavaScript — no frameworks or build tools cited.

The reader is designed for the vertical-scroll format common to webtoons, using CSS scroll-snap to lock the viewport to individual comic panels or pages as the user scrolls. The absence of any JavaScript framework keeps the dependency footprint minimal; the entire interaction layer is handled by the browser's native scroll behavior combined with lightweight vanilla JS.

The Show HN submission had one point and no comments at the time of publication. No additional details about the creator's background, location, or future plans for the project were included in the post.

Webtoon-style vertical readers have become a common hobbyist project target as CSS scroll-snap — introduced in the CSS Scroll Snap Module Level 1 spec — has matured across browsers, making snapping behavior achievable without JavaScript libraries. Projects of this type are frequently shared in the Show HN community as demonstrations of what modern browser APIs can accomplish with minimal tooling. The sources do not name any commercial competitors or reference any funding or monetization plans for this project.
