Bibata Cursor is a free, open-source mouse cursor theme designed to look clean and modern, inspired by the material design visual style. It was hand-designed by a developer named Abdulkaiz Khatri and has become one of the most widely used cursor themes in the Linux community. Windows users can also install it. The name came from a personal memory, the creator's childhood word for peanuts, with a suffix added to make it more pronounceable. The theme comes in multiple color variants: Amber (orange), Classic (black), and Ice (white). Each color is available in two shape styles, one with sharp edges and one with rounded edges, and both come in a right-handed version for users who prefer a mirrored pointer. That gives twelve distinct variants to choose from. Sizes range from 16 pixels up to 96 pixels on Linux, and four sizes are available for Windows. Installing on Linux means downloading a compressed file from the releases page or from the companion site bibata.live, extracting it, and placing the folder in your icons directory. On Windows, the process involves right-clicking an install.inf file and following a prompt through the Control Panel. Package manager options exist for Arch Linux, Manjaro, and Fedora, making installation even simpler on those systems. The repository has reached a final major version (v2.x.x) for this location. The creator has launched a successor project at a separate GitHub repository that is now the main place to get new features and updates. This repository continues to be maintained specifically for Linux package managers that reference it directly. The cursor SVG source files are available both in the repository itself and in a linked Figma design file, so anyone wanting to inspect or modify the artwork can do so. Building from source requires Python 3.7 or higher along with a couple of Python packages for generating the cursor files.
