Fifty randomly positioned and sized circles drift across the browser viewport in this d3.v6 example. Each circle's location updates on a timer, shifting by small random increments at every tick, creating a subtle Brownian-like motion. The visualization uses the `d3.range` function to generate the initial dataset, `d3.select` to create the SVG canvas, and the `d3.timer` API to drive the animation loop. Circles are styled as steelblue fills via CSS, with a light gray page background.

Fork of Random Circles

This example shows a field of 50 randomly placed circles that drift continuously across the screen through a series of small random steps. Each circle’s position updates on every tick of a d3.timer, while the SVG attributes for cx and cy are rebound to reflect the changing data. The visualization uses D3 v6 for selection, data binding, and animation, with circles styled in steelblue via a CSS class. A React wrapper is present, though the core rendering and movement are handled entirely by the D3 code in circles.js.

Circles React

This example shows 50 randomly sized and positioned circles moving horizontally across the screen, bouncing off the edges. A button toggles between sorting the circles by descending radius and reverting them to random positions. Built with React hooks and D3 v5, it uses `d3.range` to generate the initial data and a `d3.timer` loop to update both React state and SVG attributes (`cx`, `cy`). The circles are rendered as SVG elements, with the animation driven by state changes that update the DOM.

Circles

A field of 1,000 small circles drifts randomly across an SVG canvas, wrapping around the edges when they exit the viewport. A text label in the corner displays a live frames-per-second counter. The animation uses `d3.timer` to update each circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes every frame, with positions stored in a data array generated from `d3.range(1000)` and `Math.random`. The code runs on D3 v3 and renders purely with SVG elements.

Circles Part2

Ten randomly placed light blue circles animate smoothly across the screen in a full-window SVG. The example uses React state to trigger a D3 v5 transition that shifts each circle horizontally; upon transition completion, new random x-coordinates are generated and the animation repeats. Data binding via `selectAll` and `join` keeps the circles synchronized with the changing state.

random generator

Ten randomly positioned orange circles on a grey scatter plot animate to new coordinates whenever a “change data” button is clicked. The circles pulse by expanding and contracting their radius, and their fill color briefly shifts to red during the transition. Built with React and D3 v7, the visualization uses `d3.scaleLinear` for axes, `d3.randomUniform` for generation, and chained `transition` calls with an `easeSin` easing function. All rendering is SVG with animated updates.

D3 Selection Exploration

A set of 15 circles animates in a sine-wave pattern across the browser window, with each circle's vertical position and radius oscillating over time. The code uses D3 v6's `select`, `range`, and `data` join methods to bind an array of computed objects to SVG circle elements. A `setInterval` at roughly 60 frames per second updates the data and re-renders via the `.join('circle')` pattern, which handles enter, update, and exit states seamlessly.

Circular circles

Two animated clusters of small circles drift outward from their origins against a dark background, with green circles generated by a loop of 500 iterations and red circles by a separate loop of 300 iterations. Each circle uses D3’s `transition()` to move along the x-axis via `attr('cx', y[i])` and the y-axis via `attr('cy', i)`, while positions derive from `Math.cos` and `Math.sin` with random scaling. The visualization renders in SVG within a React framework, leveraging D3 v6’s `select` and `append` to structure the two groups.

Untitled

A tiny SVG viewport shows 1,000 randomly placed circles bouncing and wrapping around its edges, with a live frames-per-second counter in the corner. The animation runs through `d3.timer`, updating each circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes based on randomized velocity values. All rendering uses SVG elements and D3’s data join, with positions recalculated on every tick to keep the motion continuous.
