Cursor Dot Trail follows the pointer naturally and transforms over buttons and links, creating a subtle but expressive layer of interaction without a single line of code.
Built to feel native to Framer, the component works instantly with smart defaults and optional layer keywords to enable link mode, hide the dot, or switch to inverted colors for modals and contrasting overlays.
You have full control over size, hover scale, border width, spring physics, friction, trail length, and transition speed, allowing everything from minimal elegance to bold, magnetic behavior.
