🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A browser-based testing tool that simulates various mobile keyboard interactions to identify cursor focus bugs.
  2. A community-driven bug reporting dashboard that allows users to record and upload screen captures of UI glitches.
  3. A standardized text input library for mobile developers that prioritizes stable cursor positioning across different OS versions.
