Mobile Overflow & Viewport Breakage Tracer
Parses the server HTML at a target viewport width (375px by default) and flags markup patterns that commonly cause mobile horizontal scroll: inline 100vw declarations, fixed pixel widths wider than the target, unwrapped multi-column tables, long unwrapped code blocks, and images or video without max-width. Also checks touch target sizing and form input font size against iOS zoom triggers. The overflow figure is estimated from these markup patterns, not measured from a rendered page.
What This Metric Means for Your Site
When elements are wider than a phone screen, the page scrolls sideways or wiggles. This creates a poor mobile experience and can trigger Google Search Console mobile usability warnings.
How to Improve Your Score (Actionable Fixes)
- Replace 'width: 100vw' with 'width: 100%' to prevent scrollbar gutter width offset bugs.
- Apply 'min-width: 0' on flex children to allow text and code snippets to shrink inside rows.
- Wrap data tables and code blocks in dedicated containers with 'overflow-x: auto'.
- Apply 'overflow-x: clip' to root HTML/body containers to contain layouts without breaking sticky positioning.
