You can use these shorthand utilities for quickly configuring how content overflows an element.

Barebones overflow functionality is provided for two values by default, and they are not responsive.

This is an example of using .overflow-auto on an element with set width and height dimensions. By design, this content will vertically scroll.

This is an example of using .overflow-hidden on an element with set width and height dimensions.
