shadcn.io is an independent project built on shadcn/ui
A bordered panel titled Terms of Service holds several muted paragraphs. The panel is shorter than the text, so it scrolls vertically.
Use a vertical scroll area for long text in a fixed panel, such as terms. Let the page scroll, or use a Dialog, when the text should not be clipped. In Svelte, Ark UI does not write the terms.

Why does this terms list scroll?
ScrollArea has h-72, so the box is shorter than the seven paragraphs inside it. A scroll area scrolls when its box is smaller than the content. The width is w-full max-w-md.
Where is the padding?
On the inner div, as p-4, so it scrolls with the terms. The heading is an h4 with mb-4, and the paragraphs are flex flex-col gap-4 with text-sm text-muted-foreground.
What draws the frame?
rounded-md border on ScrollArea. This file adds no background class. The heading text is "Terms of Service".
How do I change the scrollbar?
The frame classes live on ScrollArea. The thumb lives in the scroll-area file under components/ui.
The thumb is data-slot scroll-area-thumb. The bar fades until hover or scrolling.
