A red arrow with a marker follows the mouse pointer, leaving a thin white trail behind it as the user moves across the screen. The visualization demonstrates unidirectional data flow: a `mousemove` event updates the state, which triggers a re-render of an SVG path using D3 v7. The path is drawn with a quadratic Bézier curve (`T` command) between offset coordinates, with its endpoint styled by an SVG marker definition. The code updates the `d` attribute on each render to reflect the latest cursor position.

Arrow Mouse Follower

An arrow follows the mouse cursor across the full viewport, rendered as an SVG path with a red marker arrowhead and thick stroke. The example demonstrates unidirectional data flow: a mousemove event triggers a state update that redraws the path. It uses D3 v7’s selection joins and `setState`/`render` pattern to update the SVG, with the path positioned relative to the cursor’s x and y coordinates.

Fork of Mouse Follower

A red arrow with a white fill follows the mouse cursor across a full-window SVG canvas. The arrowhead is defined in a marker with a custom path, and the arrow's curved path is calculated from the cursor's x- and y-coordinates. The example demonstrates unidirectional data flow using the d3.select and .join methods, where mousemove events trigger setState to update the state, and a new path attribute is rendered each time. It uses d3.v7 from unpkg and renders exclusively as SVG.

Animating a line with an arrow in d3

A line animates from source to target as a blue stroke draws itself, while a red arrowhead travels along the same path. The arrow rotates to match the line's direction using `transition.attrTween` and `translateAlong`, which queries the path's geometry with `getPointAtLength`. The line's progress is shown via a `stroke-dasharray` offset transition. The example uses d3.v4's SVG and animation APIs, with the arrow marker defined as a custom `svg:marker` as well as a separate path.

Mouse Follower

A circular marker follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, while a path traces the complete route of its movement. The visualization demonstrates unidirectional data flow in React with D3.js v5, using React state and Hooks (`useState`, `useCallback`) to handle mouse events and trigger re-renders. The path is built by collecting `clientX` and `clientY` coordinates on each `onMouseMove` event, and a reset button clears the trace back to the current cursor position. The SVG is rendered directly via React, with D3 providing the `path` utility for constructing the line string.

Mouse Follower

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 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.

Moving Mouse

A single red circle follows the mouse cursor across a full-screen SVG canvas, updating its position in real time with each mousemove event. Clicking anywhere randomly changes the circle's fill color by generating new RGB values. The visualization uses D3 v7's `select`, `join`, and event handling to bind the circle to the pointer coordinates, with state managed through a custom `setState` function that triggers re-renders. The SVG dimensions are set to match `window.innerWidth` and `window.innerHeight`, and the cursor is hidden via CSS.

Mouse Follower

A red circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time as the user moves. Built with React and D3 v5, the app uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track mouse coordinates via the SVG `onMouseMove` event, then re-renders the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes accordingly. No data source is involved; the visualization simply demonstrates interactive event handling and state-driven rendering with SVG.
