+### Cursor and navigation
+
+**npmx** uses `cursor: pointer` only for links to match users’ everyday experience. For all other interactive elements, including buttons, use the default cursor (_or another appropriate cursor to indicate state_).
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> A link is any element that leads to another content (_go to another page, authorize_)
+> A button is any element that operates an action (_show tooltip, open menu, "like" package, open dropdown_)
+> If you're unsure which element to use - feel free to ask question in the issue or on discord
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Always Prefer implementing navigation as real links whenever possible. This ensures they can be opened in a new tab, shared or reloaded, and so the same content is available at a stable URL
+
 ## RTL Support
 
 We support `right-to-left` languages, we need to make sure that the UI is working correctly in both directions.
