Cursify is an open-source React cursor animation library built with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and Framer Motion, offering components like bubble, spotlight, springy, and character cursors. It ships as a starter repo with a documentation site showcasing copy-paste animated cursor components for React and Next.js projects.

Use cases

  • add animated custom cursors to a react website
  • create a spotlight cursor effect in next.js
  • make the cursor follow text or characters on scroll
  • add a bubble or rainbow cursor animation to a landing page
  • copy-paste tailwind cursor components into a project
  • build a playful interactive cursor for a portfolio site

When to choose

  • you use React or Next.js with Tailwind CSS and Framer Motion
  • you want copy-paste cursor animation components rather than a heavy dependency
  • you need a variety of cursor effects like spotlight, springy, or canvas cursors

When to avoid

  • your project is not React-based
  • you need a published npm package with a guaranteed license (repo has no license file)
  • you require accessibility-friendly or reduced-motion-first cursor behavior out of the box
