Elements gets out of window area

menu links get out of the window area? Why does it happen? Why can't I scroll up to the first menu on mobile screens? What's wrong with my code?

Here I want to make a fullscreen popup menu, that is why .menu is fixed, and I want to center all links as well. But I can't seem to get some menu links on smaller devices. How can I leave .menu fixed and center all links?

enter image description here

.menu {
  position: fixed;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  /* background: #05b5f9; */
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
}

.list {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: center;
  height: 100%;
  padding: 30px;
  align-items: stretch;
  text-align: center;
  /* position: relative; */
  overflow: auto;
}

.list li {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 5px;
}

.link {
  display: block;
  padding: 20px;
  text-decoration: none;
  border: 1px solid #05b5f9;
  font-size: 20px;
  color: #05b5f9;
  font-weight: 700;
}
<div class="menu">
  <ul class="list">
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu1</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu2</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu3</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu4</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu5</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu6</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu7</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu8</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>

The problem I see is in your .menu class. Since the menu class element goes inside the document element, the height: 100%; will take the height of the parent, i.e. the document, i.e. the entire viewport height.

I don't see any problem while running your code in a separate window. This is what I see while running your code in full screen. I am guessing that the problem arises when you have something displaying over the menu element, because the top: 0; will make sure the the menu element starts from the top of the screen.

If you can share the full code, maybe we can help better. Cheerio!

You set a fixed height for your .menu which in combination with display: fixed won't let you scroll.

.menu {
  width: 100%;
  /* background: #05b5f9; */
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
}

.list {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  justify-content: center;
  height: 100%;
  padding: 30px;
  align-items: stretch;
  text-align: center;
  /* position: relative; */
  overflow: auto;
}

.list li {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 5px;
}

.link {
  display: block;
  padding: 20px;
  text-decoration: none;
  border: 1px solid #05b5f9;
  font-size: 20px;
  color: #05b5f9;
  font-weight: 700;
}
<div class="menu">
  <ul class="list">
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu1</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu2</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu3</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu4</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu5</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu6</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu7</a></li>
    <li><a href="" class="link">Menu8</a></li>
  </ul>
</div>

That you are currently just able to scroll a little bit is the result of overflow: auto; on your .list
