Description
Most (almost all) mobile IDEs / coding apps have a draggable caret, which provides easier and more precise text navigation for users. It's present on both android and iOS, and it's a very handy feature. Below is one of the studied references, but there's no design proposal so far or even clear directions to make this component.
