A single black circle tracks the mouse across an SVG canvas, smoothly following the cursor’s exact screen coordinates in real time. The React component uses the `useState` hook to store the mouse position and a `useCallback` handler for `onMouseMove` events, updating the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes. Rendering is handled by ReactDOM, with D3’s `arc` import available but unused. The minimal interaction demonstrates how React state and SVG event binding can create responsive pointer-driven visuals.

Mouse Follower

A single black circle follows the mouse as it moves across an SVG canvas. The React component tracks pointer coordinates through an `onMouseMove` event handler and updates the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes via React state. The example imports the `arc` function from d3 but does not use it, relying instead on plain SVG rendering and React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks for interactivity.

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 follows the mouse cursor across a blank SVG canvas. The React component tracks pointer coordinates via the `onMouseMove` event, updating the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes with the client’s position. Using `useState` to hold the origin and `useCallback` for the handler, it re-renders the circle at the new location on every movement. The example demonstrates dynamic SVG updates driven by React state changes without external data.

Mouse Follower

A black circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The visualization uses React state to track the cursor's position and updates the circle's center coordinates in real time. The code leverages React hooks like `useState` and `useCallback`, with the `arc` function imported from d3, though only a standard `circle` element is rendered. The SVG's `onMouseMove` handler drives the interaction, displaying a simple, responsive pointer-tracking effect.

This example displays a single black circle that follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The circle’s position updates live based on the cursor’s coordinates, which are tracked through React state. The code uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, an SVG `<circle>` element, and D3.js version 5 for the underlying library. The rendering relies on ReactDOM to mount the component, with no additional data sources or animations beyond the direct mouse-following interaction.

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.

A black circle follows the mouse cursor across a green SVG canvas, responding instantly to pointer movement. The visualization uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track the mouse position and update the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes. The SVG element’s `onMouseMove` event handler captures the cursor coordinates, while D3’s `arc` module is imported but unused. The example demonstrates a simple interactive pattern combining React state management with SVG rendering.

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.
