A single gray circle tracks the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas in real time. Built with React, the component uses the `useState` hook to store cursor coordinates and a `useCallback` event handler for `onMouseMove`, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes. The visualization demonstrates simple state-driven rendering in React with D3.js loaded for potential further data manipulation. The circle starts centered on a 960×500 viewport and moves smoothly in response to pointer events.

Mouse Follower

A single gray circle tracks the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time. Built with React, the app uses the `useState` hook to store the cursor’s coordinates and a `handleMouseMove` callback triggered by the SVG’s `onMouseMove` event to update them. Rendered without D3 or external data, the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes are bound directly to the state values.

Mouse Follower

A single gray circle tracks the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, shifting its center position in real time to follow pointer movement. The React component manages the cursor coordinates through the `useState` hook, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes whenever the SVG's `onMouseMove` event fires. Rendered with ReactDOM, the visualization uses a fixed 960×500 viewport and a circle radius of 30 pixels, demonstrating simple state-driven interaction within a declarative UI framework.

A single gray circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time. The example demonstrates a basic interactive React component that uses the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track mouse coordinates. The `onMouseMove` event handler updates the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes, while D3's `range` function is imported but not actively used. The visualization is rendered entirely through React's declarative SVG elements, with no data source or animation logic beyond direct mouse tracking.

Mouse Follower

A single gray circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, creating a direct and responsive visual interaction. The example demonstrates how React manages the circle's position through state, with an `onMouseMove` event handler updating the cursor coordinates on every movement. D3's `d3.min.js` library is loaded but not used for any calculations or rendering, as the visualization relies entirely on React's `useState` hook and ReactDOM to draw the SVG circle. The full-screen, borderless layout keeps the focus on the smooth, real-time tracking of the pointer.

Mouse Follower

A single gray circle follows the cursor's every movement across an SVG canvas in this interactive React visualization. The circle's position updates in real-time based on mouse coordinates captured through an event listener. Built with React 16.9 and rendered as SVG, it uses the `useState` hook to track mouse position and `useCallback` to optimize the `onMouseMove` handler. No data source is involved; the example demonstrates basic state management and event handling in a React visualization context.

Mouse Follower

A single gray circle tracks the mouse’s exact position across an SVG canvas, updating its center coordinates in real time as the pointer moves. Built with React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes are re-rendered on every `mousemove` event, using the `clientX` and `clientY` values from the event object. D3 is loaded but only for its `arc` import, which remains unused in the visible code. The SVG viewport is fixed at 960 by 500 pixels.

Mouse Follower

The example displays a single gray circle that tracks the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. Mouse movement triggers a React state update, repositioning the circle’s center coordinates. The code uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks within an SVG `onMouseMove` handler, while D3 v5 is loaded but unused. Rendering is handled by ReactDOM, with a fixed viewport of 960 by 500 pixels and a circle radius of 30.

Mouse Follower

A single circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The React component tracks pointer movement through the `onMouseMove` handler and updates the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes in state. The visualization uses React `useState` and `useCallback` for state management, with the SVG rendered directly by React. No external data source is involved; the interaction relies purely on mouse event handling within the React and D3-powered environment.
