Hey team,

I’ve tried several approaches to change the colour of the blinking cursor, but nothing has worked so far.

I thought `caret-color` might be the solution, but unfortunately, it didn’t work:

```auto
.input {
 caret-color: red;
}

```

If anyone has insights on changing the cursor color, I’d really appreciate the help.

Thanks 🙂

UXP is not a browser… maybe like 10-15 % of CSS features work there.

I think it is not possible in UXP.
