Reading Progress Bar

Reading Progress Bar
A slim bar showing how far through an article the reader has scrolled.
What it does
A thin progress indicator pinned to the top of article pages, tracking scroll through the body text.
How it works
- 1 Measure progress against the article body element only. Take the top and bottom of the prose, not the height of the document.
- 2 Recalculate the body height when the page reflows: late-loading images, expanded sections, embeds, and font swaps all change the total after first paint.
- 3 Reuse the app's existing Progress Indicator System tokens for the bar's colour and height rather than introducing a new accent, and keep it visually distinct from Route Change Progress so the two are not confused.
