This module activates OS-independent smooth scrolling in Emacs. This primarily benefits trackpad and scroll wheel users (not so much those that scroll via their keyboards), by utilizing the ultra-scroll package.

 This module requires Emacs 29.1 or newer.

 For optimal performance from this module, it's highly recommended you use Emacs with native-compilation. MacOS users may also have a better experience using the emacs-mac fork of Emacs, available via Homebrew.

Troubleshooting

This module should work on any platform that provides pixel-level scrolling information from your input hardware, but if you run into issues, here are some things to try:

Use M-x ultra-scroll-check to diagnose common issues. Visit ultra-scroll's documentation for more on interpreting and acting on its results.
Read ultra-scroll's documentation on scrolling speed; it outlines common factors that may impact it and how to mitigate them.
See Doom's "Why is Emacs/Doom slow?" write-up, where Doom's author documents common factors that can slow Emacs down in general (not specifically to do with scrolling) and what to do about them.

If all else fails, let us know on Discourse or Discord. Only file an issue if you have a good idea what's causing the problem or have an explicit error to report (performance issues, in general, tend to be the result of many factors and are the greatest source of false positives on our issue tracker).
