A single black circle on an SVG canvas tracks the user's mouse cursor in real time, creating a simple interactive visual. The example demonstrates state management in React, using the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to update the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes on every `mousemove` event. Rendered with SVG elements, the circle is positioned via React's `onMouseMove` handler, while D3 v5 and React 16 are loaded externally. No data source is involved; the visualization purely reacts to pointer movement within the 960 by 500 pixel viewport.

Mouse Follower

A single black circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The example demonstrates how React manages dynamic state alongside D3’s rendering environment. Using React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, the component tracks mouse coordinates from the SVG’s `onMouseMove` event and updates the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes. The circle is rendered via React’s JSX, while D3 v5 is loaded but not directly used for interaction; the visualization relies entirely on React’s state updates to redraw the SVG element in real time.

Mouse Follower

A single black circle tracks the mouse in real time within an SVG canvas. The example uses React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to capture the mouse position via the SVG `onMouseMove` event, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes. The visualization demonstrates a minimal interactive pattern, relying on React for state management and D3 v5 only for SVG rendering support, with no data source beyond the live pointer coordinates.

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 single black circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The circle’s position updates on every `mousemove` event, driven by React state. The application uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track the cursor’s coordinates and re-render the circle accordingly. The example is rendered with D3.js v6 for SVG creation, while React handles the interactive state, with no external data source.

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 black circle follows the user's mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The visualization uses React state to track mouse coordinates via an `onMouseMove` event handler, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes in real time. D3's `range` function is imported but unused in this example. The rendering relies on React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage and memoize the position updates, with no external data or complex interaction beyond the positional tracking.

Mouse follower

A circle tracks the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, reacting instantly to movement. The visualization demonstrates state management in React, using the `useState` hook to store cursor coordinates and `useCallback` to optimize the mouse-move handler. The SVG circle updates its `cx` and `cy` attributes based on those coordinates, rendered via ReactDOM. The example uses D3.js v7 only for its bundled build, while the core interaction is purely React-driven.

Mouse Follower

A single dark circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas in a React-based visualization. The circle’s position updates live via React’s `useState` hook, driven by the SVG `onMouseMove` event, which captures the cursor’s client coordinates. Rendering uses plain SVG elements, with D3 v5 loaded but not actively used in the logic. The example demonstrates reactive state-driven updates in React for interactive graphics, with the circle centered on the pointer’s exact location.
