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 plain SVG circle follows the user's mouse cursor across a 960-by-500 canvas. The React component tracks `clientX` and `clientY` from a `mousemove` event handler, updating state to reposition the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes. The example uses React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, with D3 v7 loaded for potential supplementary utilities, though rendering relies solely on SVG elements and React's declarative updates.

Mouse Follower

An interactive SVG visualization renders a single circle that follows the mouse cursor across a 960-by-500 canvas. The React component tracks pointer movement via the `onMouseMove` event and updates the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes through `useState` and `useCallback`. Initially positioned at the canvas center, the circle moves smoothly with the cursor. The example demonstrates state-driven rendering in React 17 with D3 v7, using plain SVG elements rather than data joins or scales. No external data source is involved; the visualization purely reacts to user input.

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.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. React state tracks the pointer position, updating on every `mousemove` event, and re-renders the circle's `cx` and `cy` coordinates accordingly. The example uses React 17 with hooks (`useState`, `useCallback`) and renders through `ReactDOM`. D3 v7 is loaded but not directly used. The SVG has a fixed width of 960 pixels and height of 560 pixels, with the circle initially centered at the canvas midpoint.

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.

MouseFollower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time as the pointer moves. The example uses React state with the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track mouse coordinates, which are passed as `cx` and `cy` attributes to a D3 v7-generated circle element. The SVG itself handles mouse movement events via `onMouseMove`, while the ReactDOM library renders the component into the DOM.

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, centering itself on the pointer’s coordinates. The example demonstrates React state management to track mouse movement, updating the circle’s position on every move event. It uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks alongside D3 v6 for the SVG rendering, with an initial circle centered at 480, 250. The visualization responds interactively in real time, showcasing a minimal integration of React and D3 for dynamic graphics.
