A circle follows the mouse cursor in real time across an SVG canvas, highlighting the immediate connection between pointer movement and visual feedback. The visualization uses React state management, with a `useState` hook tracking the cursor's `clientX` and `clientY` coordinates, which are updated via a callback on the SVG's `onMouseMove` event. Rendered with React’s `ReactDOM.render`, the circle’s position transitions smoothly as the state changes, while D3.js is loaded but not actively used in the logic. The example demonstrates a simple, responsive interaction pattern.

Mouse Follower

A single circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time. The visualization demonstrates React’s state management and event handling, using the `useState` hook to track cursor coordinates and the `onMouseMove` event to update them. The circle’s center is bound to the `mousePosition` state, and its radius is fixed at 30 pixels. The code renders the scene with React and ReactDOM, while D3 is loaded but not explicitly used in the visible logic.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor as it moves across an SVG canvas, creating a simple interactive pointer-tracking effect. The visualization uses React state to store the cursor's coordinates and updates the circle's position through an `onMouseMove` event handler. Rendered with D3 v7 and React 18, the SVG circle has an aquamarine fill with a green stroke. The code relies on React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage and update the mouse position efficiently.

Mouse follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, creating a simple interactive visual response. The React application tracks cursor position through an `onMouseMove` event handler, updating state via the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, and renders the circle using D3 v7 within an SVG element. The circle’s center coordinates are dynamically bound to the latest mouse position, with a fixed radius of 30 pixels.

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, 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.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time as the pointer moves. The visualization uses React state to track mouse coordinates via the `onMouseMove` event handler and renders a single `<circle>` element with D3 v7’s selection-free React integration. The SVG viewport is fixed at 960 by 500 pixels, and the circle’s center tracks the clientX and clientY values directly.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time. The visualization is built with React and D3 v6, using React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track and update the mouse coordinates from the `onMouseMove` event. The circle is rendered as an SVG element with a fixed radius, and its `cx` and `cy` attributes are bound to the current mouse position. The example demonstrates a simple interactive pattern in a React-D3 integration.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time based on pointer movement. The visualization demonstrates mouse-event handling and state-driven rendering with React, using the `useState` hook to store the cursor coordinates and `onMouseMove` to update them. ReactDOM renders an SVG circle whose `cx` and `cy` attributes are bound to the tracked position, with the viewport dimensions fixed at 960 by 500 pixels. No data source or external computation is involved; the example relies solely on React's declarative update cycle.
