how do I add a javascript scroll effect?

Question

I'd like to add a scroll effect whereby instead of jumping instantly to the anchor down the page, when you click a link at the top it rolls smoothly down the page. Haven't had any luck yet. It's common in bootstrap websites:

You can use this for example: https://www.solodev.com/blog/web-design/adding-an-animated-scroll-down-anchor.stml

Basically, you want to play with the scroll (controller via javascript) to me smoothly to the final position (anchor position). There are many ways you can achieve that.
