Navbar Resize is Not Smooth on Scroll

[adityajha2005]

Description:

When scrolling down, the navbar shrinks in size, but the transition is not smooth. It appears to be laggy, possibly due to excessive re-renders or inefficient event handling.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Scroll down the page to trigger the navbar resize.
2. Observe the navbar shrinking behavior.
3. Notice that the transition is not smooth, and the navbar may feel jittery or unresponsive.

Expected Behavior:

The navbar should shrink smoothly without any noticeable lag or abrupt jumps.

Possible Causes:

• Too many state updates causing re-renders.
• Inefficient handling of scroll events.
• Lack of proper CSS transitions for smooth resizing.

Suggested Fixes:

✅ Optimize Scroll Event Handling:

• Use throttling or debouncing to limit the number of state updates.
• Consider using useRef instead of useState to avoid unnecessary re-renders.

✅ Improve CSS Transitions:

• Ensure that the navbar height change is animated smoothly using transition: height 0.3s ease-in-out;.
