A smiling face rendered as an SVG follows the mouse cursor across the canvas. The example combines React's `useState` and `useCallback` with D3.js to manage interactive state and coordinate updates. As the user moves the mouse, the application updates the position of the face's center, which is drawn using D3-driven SVG elements like circles for the head, eyes, and mouth. The underlying HTML hides page overflow for a full-screen, immersive interaction.

mouse follower

A smiling face rendered in SVG follows the mouse across the screen. Built with React and D3 v5, the example uses D3’s `arc` generator to create the mouth, while the face circles, eyes, and stroke are defined as React components. The entire SVG group is translated to the viewport center, and the mouse follower behavior is implied by the full-screen, overflow-hidden layout, though no explicit mouse event handlers appear in the code. The static smiley face adapts to its container dimensions.

Mouse follower

A smiley face drawn with SVG circles follows the cursor inside a 960 by 500 canvas. The React component tracks mouse movements via an `onMouseMove` handler, updating state to reposition a single circle. While the static markup comments include a complete face, the active code renders only the follower circle using React's `useState` and `useCallback`. The example demonstrates combining React's declarative updates with D3's SVG scene graph for interactive visualizations.

Mouse Follower

A smiling face drawn with React SVG components follows the mouse cursor across the screen. The face is composed of reusable React components (BackgroundCircle, Eyes, Mouth) that use d3.arc for the mouth path. The app tracks mouse movement via React’s onMouseMove and useState hook, updating the circle’s cx and cy coordinates in real time. The visualization demonstrates interactive, state-driven rendering with React 17 and d3.v7, tightly coupling user input to SVG output.

Mouse follower

A smiling cartoon face renders in SVG using React components for the background circle, eyes, and mouth, all positioned within a transformed group. As the mouse moves over the svg element, a separate filled circle follows the cursor’s client coordinates. The face itself integrates D3’s `arc()` generator for the mouth shape and static eye offsets, while React’s `useState` and `onMouseMove` handler update the follower circle’s position.

Mouse Follower

A smiling face rendered as an SVG using React and D3 follows the mouse cursor across the screen. The face is constructed with D3’s `arc()` generator for the mouth, alongside static circle elements for the eyes and face outline. The component uses React’s declarative JSX to define the SVG structure, while D3 v5 calculates the path geometry. Mouse movement triggers a transform on the root group, shifting the entire face to track the cursor’s position. The example demonstrates hybrid React-D3 integration for interactive visualization.

MouseFollower

A smiling face follows the mouse cursor as it moves across an SVG canvas. The example demonstrates real-time interaction by tracking mouse coordinates and updating a circle element’s position. Built with React hooks (`useState`, `useCallback`) and D3 v6, it renders an SVG circle that responds to `onMouseMove` events. The code uses ReactDOM to mount the component and D3 for basic utility functions, though the interaction relies primarily on React’s state management for dynamic updates.

Mouse follower

A smiley face rendered as an SVG circle follows the mouse cursor across the browser viewport. The React application tracks pointer movement via an `onMouseMove` handler, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` coordinates with the cursor's client position. The visualization uses React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage state, and D3.js is loaded for potential data manipulation, though the current implementation relies solely on SVG primitives within a React component.

mouse follower

A smiley face follows the mouse cursor across the screen, rendered as SVG circles on a hidden-background canvas. Using React hooks (`useState`, `useCallback`) for state management and D3 v5 for event handling, the component tracks pointer coordinates and updates the face’s position accordingly. D3’s mouse interaction API reads the cursor location relative to the container, while React’s state-driven re-rendering animates the yellow circle face, eyes, and smile in real time.
