this file shouldn't have been commited

[Daodu111]

I’ll remove it and create a PR again. Hope that would help and also I want to ask if the function works as requested?

[possumbilities]

why the extra space?

[Daodu111]

I’ll also work on this as soon as possible

Hi @Daodu111 Thank you for the contribution! After looking at it further, I'm not sure that this meets the criteria outlined in the Issue.

For example:

The element would likely not be present on smaller screens which already have some measure of functionality related to this baked into their operating system level UX; but for larger viewport sizes this could be much more helpful to include.

Additionally, this does not utilize CSS pseudo elements like :before or :after

It also includes a new icon outside the standard icon library implementation, and should follow how icons are included within the framework already.

And I believe you need to include the scroll-to-top on an existing specimen or create a new one for display/testing purposes. One could argue adding it to the archive-page context might suffice since it has sufficient height, has two columns, and might benefit from such a button. A longer context like blog-post might work as well or in addition.

I think the approach needs to be changed in several areas before it could proceed. I'll leave it open for now to leave room for you to adjust it.
