Swarm cursor

A small flock of agents flies after the pointer, orbiting it at rest and stretching out when it moves; a press scatters them.

What it is for

Playful landing sections and 404 pages (wraps its content).

Accessibility

  • Keyboard. Components in the kit are written to be reached and used with the keyboard. Try it: press Tab inside the preview.
  • Reduced motion. With prefers-reduced-motion on, animation settles to its finished state at once.
  • Touch. Pointer-follow effects are skipped on touch screens; controls stay finger-sized.
