A React application renders an SVG circle that follows the mouse cursor across a 960x500 canvas. The component uses the `useState` hook to track mouse position and `useCallback` to memoize the mouse-move event handler, preventing unnecessary re-renders. The `onMouseMove` event on the SVG element updates the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes via D3-style coordinate mapping. The demo showcases React 16.9 hooks for state management and D3 v5 for SVG rendering, with the circle's position initialized at the canvas center before responding to user interaction.

Mouse follower

A React application renders a single circle inside an SVG that follows the mouse cursor across the viewport. The component tracks pointer coordinates using a `useState` hook and updates the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes on every `mousemove` event via a `useCallback` handler. Rendering relies on React 16.9 for state management and SVG creation, with D3 v5 loaded but not actively used for this behavior. The circle starts centered at 480 by 250 pixels and moves smoothly in response to user input.

React Mouse Follower

A React component renders an SVG circle that follows the mouse cursor across a 960×500 viewing area. The application uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track mouse coordinates via an `onMouseMove` event handler on the SVG element, updating the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes in real time. D3 v5 is loaded but not directly used; rendering relies solely on React’s declarative SVG output with a fixed 100-pixel radius circle.

Mouse Follower

A React-controlled SVG circle follows the mouse cursor across a fixed 960×500 viewport. Mouse coordinates are captured by the SVG’s `onMouseMove` event, processed via a `useCallback` hook, and stored in React state with `useState`. Each movement updates the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes, causing a re-render. The example demonstrates direct state-driven SVG updates without D3-specific interaction APIs, relying solely on React’s event handling and DOM reconciliation.

Mouse follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The example demonstrates React state management for tracking pointer position and rendering a visual response. The component uses `useState` to store mouse coordinates and `useCallback` to handle the `onMouseMove` event, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes on each move. The SVG element listens for mouse events, and ReactDOM renders the interactive graphic. The circle is styled with a default black fill and no animation or smoothing, providing a direct, immediate link between input and visual output.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, with React managing its position in real time. The component uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track pointer coordinates from the `onMouseMove` event, updating the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes accordingly. The example demonstrates a minimal integration of D3.js (v5) with React, where D3 provides no visual functions—only the SVG rendering is handled by React, and the circle radius is fixed at 30 pixels. The canvas is 960 by 500 pixels, and the initial cursor position starts at the center.

Mouse Follower

This example shows a single circle that follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. Built with React and D3 v5, it uses React’s `useState` hook to track the cursor’s clientX and clientY coordinates on every `mousemove` event, then re-renders the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes to match. The `useCallback` hook memoizes the event handler, and the initial mouse position is set to the canvas center. The rendering uses ReactDOM to mount the SVG, with no external data source.

Mouse Follower

A mouse follower example renders a single SVG circle that tracks the cursor's position within a 960 by 500 viewport. Using React state hooks (`useState` and `useCallback`), the component updates the circle's `cx` and `cy` coordinates on every `mousemove` event. D3 version 7 is loaded for potential utilities, though the interaction relies solely on React's event handling and SVG rendering. The circle starts centered and moves fluidly, demonstrating simple interaction between DOM events and React's declarative UI updates.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor as it moves across an SVG canvas. The React component tracks pointer coordinates via the `onMouseMove` event and updates the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes through `useState` and `useCallback`. Rendered with D3 v5’s SVG helpers within React 16.9, the example demonstrates real-time state-driven positioning without external data.
