Target cursor

Four corner brackets spin around the pointer and snap onto links and buttons you hover or focus; touch cycles through targets and locks onto taps.

What it is for

Dashboards, game or sci-fi styled pages where interactive elements should feel 'lockable' (wraps its content; selector chooses the targets).

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.
