The CursorBlob plugin supports dynamically changing the cursor's appearance using the data-cursor-style
attribute. You can add this data attribute to any HTML element to define custom behavior and cursor style on hover.
Each element with the attribute data-cursor-style="your-style"
will switch the cursor’s class to cursor--your-style
. For example:
<div data-cursor-style="blend">...</div>
This will add the class .cursor--blend
to the cursor element. You can then define the necessary styles in CSS using this class. Examples.
