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.

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 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 smiling face is rendered as an SVG in a React component, with eyes and a mouth positioned relative to the center of a 960 by 500 viewport. The code computes circle positions for the eyes and a path for the mouth arc, while a background circle provides the face’s outline. It uses React’s `ReactDOM.render` to mount the component and inline SVG elements, with no D3-specific APIs beyond the imported library. The example demonstrates a static, declarative visualization built entirely with React and SVG.

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

An SVG smiley face follows the mouse cursor across a hidden-overflow canvas. The face is built from React components for the background circle, eyes, and mouth, with a d3.arc path generating the curved smile. A range of 18 faces is rendered, each with randomized stroke widths, eye offsets, eye radii, and mouth dimensions, producing a playful, shifting expression as the pointer moves. The composition uses static SVG elements and React’s component model to assemble the graphic.

A simple SVG face, rendered with React, tracks nothing; it is a static smiling face centered in a yellow circle. The code uses the `arc` helper from `d3-shape` to define the mouth’s path, and React components construct the SVG elements, including two eyes and a stroke-bordered head. The face is positioned using a group element with a `transform` translation, and ES6 template literals set the coordinate values. The example highlights how D3’s geometry utilities can be combined with React for declarative SVG drawing.

A smiley face rendered in SVG follows the mouse as it moves across the screen. The visualization uses React to manage the component state and D3’s `csv` loader to fetch color data from a remote GitHub gist, displaying each color as a div. The underlying SVG elements are positioned based on the cursor coordinates, with the face drawn using simple circles for the head, eyes, and mouth. The example demonstrates combining React’s declarative UI with D3 for asynchronous data loading and SVG rendering.
