A ScrollPhysics implementation that prevents horizontal scrolling, ensuring content only scrolls vertically. Ideal for layouts where horizontal movement could disrupt user experience, such as forms or single-column interfaces. It extends Flutter's base ScrollPhysics and integrates seamlessly into ListView, Scrollable, or other scrollable widgets. The package is lightweight and compatible across all major platforms, including mobile, web, and desktop. Designed for developers seeking fine-grained control over scroll behavior without custom physics logic.
