Add a scrolling sidebar
A scrolling sidebar contains content that’s related to the surrounding text but isn’t part of the main text flow. For example, on a page about the moon, you could include a sidebar with information about the first moon landing. The sidebar can contain text, images, and shapes. Readers can scroll through the sidebar, so you aren’t limited by the page size when adding content to it.
