A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time to mirror the user's pointer movement. The visualization uses React state management with the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track the cursor's client coordinates, which are then passed to the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes. Rendered via ReactDOM, the SVG element listens for `onMouseMove` events to trigger the position updates, creating a simple interactive demonstration of dynamic component re-rendering within a React-based visualization.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time to mirror the user’s pointer movements. The visualization uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage the cursor’s coordinates, captured through the `onMouseMove` event on the `<svg>` element. The circle is rendered via ReactDOM, with its center tied to the `clientX` and `clientY` values from the event, demonstrating a straightforward state-driven interactive graphic.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time. The visualization uses React state management with the `useState` hook to track mouse coordinates, which are captured via the SVG element's `onMouseMove` event handler. The circle is rendered as an SVG `<circle>` element, with its `cx` and `cy` attributes bound to the current mouse position. The example demonstrates simple interactive rendering in React, with no external data sources, relying solely on user input to drive the visualization.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time to mirror the pointer’s movement. The visualization uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track cursor coordinates (`clientX`, `clientY`) and re-render the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes on every mouse move. The SVG element handles the `onMouseMove` event, while the circle’s radius is fixed at 30 pixels. The code imports React, ReactDOM, and D3 v5, though no D3-specific functions are invoked beyond the library’s inclusion.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time to mirror the pointer’s location. The visualization demonstrates React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage mouse coordinates and re-render the circle on every move event. Built with React 16.9 and rendered as SVG, the component listens for `onMouseMove` on the `<svg>` element, extracting `clientX` and `clientY` to set the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes. The example uses no external data source, relying solely on user interaction.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor within an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time to mirror the pointer's movement. The visualization demonstrates state management and event handling in a React application, where the mouse position is tracked via the SVG's `onMouseMove` event and stored in React state. The circle is rendered as an SVG `<circle>` element, with its `cx` and `cy` attributes bound to the current mouse coordinates. The code uses React Hooks, specifically `useState` and `useCallback`, alongside D3 v5 for SVG creation, all within a React 16.9 framework.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor as it moves across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time. The visualization uses React state via `useState` and `useCallback` to track mouse coordinates from the `onMouseMove` event, and renders the circle with SVG markup. The React DOM library mounts the component to the page, while the circle’s center is set to the current pointer location. This demonstrates a simple interactive pattern where user input directly drives visual output.

Mouse follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across a full-window SVG canvas, reacting in real time to pointer movement. The React component tracks mouse coordinates via the `onMouseMove` event, updating state with `useState` and `useCallback`, then re-renders the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes. The visualization uses React 16.9 and ReactDOM to render SVG elements directly in the browser.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time to mirror the user's movements. The visualization uses React's `useState` hook to store the mouse coordinates and an `onMouseMove` event handler on the SVG element to update that state. The circle is rendered with ReactDOM in a production build, with the SVG dimensions fixed at 960 by 500 pixels and a circle radius of 30. No external data source is used; the interaction is entirely driven by pointer events.
