+/**
+ * The `SmartTooltip` class provides functionality to display tooltips on HTML elements.
+ * Tooltips can be triggered by mouse hover or click events and are positioned optimally
+ * within the viewport to avoid overflow.
+ *
+ * @example
+ * ```typescript
+ * const tooltip = new SmartTooltip({
+ *   triggerName: 'tooltip'
+ * });
+ * ```
+ *
+ * @remarks
+ * The tooltip content is specified using a data attribute on the trigger element.
+ * The tooltip can be triggered by elements with the specified `triggerName` data attribute.
+ *
+ * @param {SmartTooltipOptions} options - Configuration options for the tooltip.
+ *
+ * @property {string} triggerName - The name of the data attribute used to trigger the tooltip.
+ * @property {HTMLDivElement} tooltip - The tooltip element.
+ * @property {string | null} activeTriggerType - The type of the currently active trigger ('click' or 'hover').
+ * @property {number} spacing - The spacing between the tooltip and the trigger element.
+ *
+ * @method setupEventListeners - Sets up event listeners for mouseover, mouseout, click, resize, and scroll events.
+ * @method handleClick - Handles click events to show or hide the tooltip.
+ * @method handleMouseOver - Handles mouseover events to show the tooltip.
+ * @method handleMouseOut - Handles mouseout events to hide the tooltip.
+ * @method handleResize - Handles window resize events to hide the tooltip.
+ * @method handleScroll - Handles window scroll events to hide the tooltip.
+ * @method isVisible - Checks if the tooltip is currently visible.
+ * @method calculatePosition - Calculates the optimal position for the tooltip relative to the trigger element.
+ * @method fitsInViewport - Checks if the tooltip fits within the viewport and is not obstructed by other elements.
+ * @method show - Displays the tooltip with the specified content.
+ * @method hide - Hides the tooltip.
+ * @method destroy - Removes event listeners and the tooltip element from the DOM.
