Using the CSS cursor property.
Examples of values:
auto: Cursor is determined by the context.default: Default cursor (usually an arrow).pointer: Pointer finger (for interactive elements).text: Text cursor (vertical line).wait: Waiting cursor (hourglass or indicator).help: Help cursor (question mark).move: Move cursor.not-allowed: "Not allowed" cursor (crossed circle).<url>: Use of a custom image.
Example of usage:
/* Change cursor for all links */
a {
cursor: pointer;
}
/* Use a custom image */
.custom-cursor {
cursor: url('path/to/image.cur'), auto; /* Image URL and fallback */
}
Use .cur or .ani format for custom cursors, along with a fallback from standard values to ensure cross-browser compatibility.
