Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

Currently, the website includes a scroll-to-top (up arrow) button that allows users to quickly return to the top of the page. However, there is no scroll-to-bottom (down arrow) button to help users quickly navigate to the end of long pages.
On content-heavy pages, this can reduce navigation efficiency and requires manual scrolling to reach the bottom.

Steps to reproduce

Visit the JSON Schema website.
Click on Specifition in the navigation bar.
Select JSON Schema Core from the specification options.
Scroll down the page.
Observe that a scroll-to-top (up arrow) button is available.
Notice that there is no scroll-to-bottom (down arrow) button to quickly navigate to the end of the page.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to suggest adding a scroll-to-bottom (down arrow) button similar to the existing scroll-to-top button.
The new button should:
Appear when appropriate (e.g., when the user is near the top of the page)
Smoothly scroll to the bottom of the page when clicked

Image

Follow the same design, styling, and animation pattern as the current scroll-to-top button
Maintain UI consistency
This enhancement would improve navigation, usability, and overall user experience, especially for long content pages.

Describe alternatives you've considered

One alternative would be to rely solely on manual scrolling or keyboard shortcuts (such as using the End key) to reach the bottom of the page.

Research direction

Start on the JSON Schema website's Specification > JSON Schema Core page and locate the existing scroll-to-top button. Follow its design, styling, animation, and visibility behavior for a scroll-to-bottom button that appears near the top and smoothly reaches the page bottom; verify it on a long specification page.
