This example shows a single circle that follows the mouse cursor across the full browser window. The circle’s position updates in real time as the user moves the pointer over an SVG canvas. Built with React (version 16.9.0) and ReactDOM, the component uses the `useState` hook to store the mouse coordinates and the `useCallback` hook to handle `mousemove` events, retrieving `clientX` and `clientY` from the event object. The SVG is sized to `window.innerWidth` and `window.innerHeight`, with the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes bound to the current mouse position.

Mouse Follower

This example shows a single circle that follows the mouse cursor across the full browser window. The circle’s position updates live through React state, using the `clientX` and `clientY` values from the `onMouseMove` event on an SVG element. The code renders the circle as an SVG `<circle>` with React 16.9, and the state hook `useState` manages the cursor coordinates. The visualization demonstrates a simple interactive mapping between pointer movement and SVG shape placement.

Mouse Follower

A full-screen SVG circle follows the mouse cursor in real time, with its center tied directly to the pointer’s clientX and clientY coordinates. Built with React, the example uses the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track mouse position and update the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes on every move. Rendering is handled via ReactDOM to an SVG element that spans the entire browser window, with no explicit data source beyond user input.

Mouse Follower

This example displays a single circle that follows the mouse cursor across the full browser window. The circle is rendered as an SVG element with its position updated on every mouse movement event. Built with React, the code uses the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage and optimize the cursor position state, while `ReactDOM.render` mounts the component. The SVG viewport is set to the window’s dimensions, and the circle’s center coordinates are directly bound to the tracked mouse position.

Mouse Follower

A single circle follows the mouse cursor across a full-screen SVG canvas. Built with React and SVG, the example uses the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track `clientX` and `clientY` coordinates from the SVG element's `onMouseMove` event, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes in real time. The circle starts at the center of the viewport and moves smoothly with pointer input.

Mouse Follower

This example shows a circle that continuously follows the mouse cursor across a full-window SVG canvas. Built with React, it tracks the cursor’s `clientX` and `clientY` coordinates through an `onMouseMove` event handler, storing the position in state via `useState` and updating the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes accordingly. The `useCallback` hook optimizes the event handler, and the component renders a single SVG `<circle>` element without any data source.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the user's mouse cursor across a full-window SVG canvas, updating its position in real time. The visualization demonstrates React state management with the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, where a `mousemove` event handler on the SVG element captures client coordinates. ReactDOM renders the circle at the stored mouse position, with the window dimensions defining the SVG's width and height. The code uses React 16.9 and renders purely with SVG elements, with no external data source.

Mouse Follower

A circle tracks the mouse cursor across a full-browser SVG canvas. The React application uses the `useState` hook and a `handleMouseMove` callback with `onMouseMove` to update the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes in response to pointer movement. The rendering relies on ReactDOM's `render` method to draw the single SVG circle element, with dimensions set from the window's inner width and height.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across a full-screen SVG canvas, updating its position in real time as the pointer moves. The React app uses the `useState` hook to store the current mouse coordinates and the `useCallback` hook to define a `handleMouseMove` event handler, which reads `clientX` and `clientY` from the synthetic event. The circle, with a fixed radius of 30 pixels, is rendered via SVG’s `<circle>` element, whose `cx` and `cy` attributes are bound to the state, and the window’s dimensions determine the viewport size.
