Rachel How

Designer's personal site whose /cursors page is a rare curated gallery of custom-cursor implementations

Tier C · WeakGalleryPortfolioReferencerachelhow.com

The personal site of Rachel How, a designer, YouTuber and Video Lead at Mobbin. Three sections matter for reference work. /cursors collects nine sites chosen specifically for their custom cursor implementations (tinycamp.site, itsiddharth.design, recent.design, sidequest.camp, offscript.vc, config.floguo.com, sandstudio.shop, craft.wild.as, jackiehu.design) — a single-element gallery for an element almost nobody catalogues. /tools is an eleven-entry list of design tools she actually uses (mobbin.com, shadergradient.co, recent.design, cosmos.so, macfolio.com, fontsinuse.com, designspells.com, icon.museum, annualreport.gallery, studyoldads.com, fuse.kiwi). It held nine on 2026-08-17 and gained the Annual Report Archive and Study Old Ads since then. Every one of the eleven is now a record in this corpus. /resources offers four free downloads: Minimal icons, the Glow Wallpaper Pack, a UI/UX Design Learning Roadmap, and The Creative Freelancer Kit. The rest is personal work, a blog, notes and an affiliate-linked desk setup.

For an agent

Reach for /cursors when a brief asks for a distinctive pointer and you want real implementations to study — custom cursors are widely discussed and almost never catalogued, so this short list is worth more than its length suggests. Treat /tools and /resources as a designer's personal shortlist, not a survey. The site is a Next.js shell over Webflow markup: the list pages render their entries client-side, so a plain fetch returns the chrome and the domain names but not the links, and there is no API or feed for them. RSS exists for the blog and notes only.

Why it is here. It is the only source in this corpus that treats the cursor as a design element worth collecting, which makes a nine-item list disproportionately useful.
