What is Magnes?

Magnes is a W.I.P. application designed to emulate the functionality tied to the iPadOS cursor.

Features:

Makes the cursor snap to nearby elements system-wide using accessibility APIs
Enables "trackpad inertia", which makes the cursor glide across the screen instead of stopping immediately
Changes the cursor images to styles that closely resemble the iPadOS variants
