A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, creating a simple interactive visual response. The React application tracks cursor position through an `onMouseMove` event handler, updating state via the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, and renders the circle using D3 v7 within an SVG element. The circle’s center coordinates are dynamically bound to the latest mouse position, with a fixed radius of 30 pixels.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor within an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time as the pointer moves. Built with React, the application tracks mouse coordinates using an `onMouseMove` event handler and stores them in state via `useState`. The circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes are bound to this state, and the SVG is rendered through ReactDOM. D3.js is included but not used for drawing; the interaction relies solely on React’s event system.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, centering itself on the pointer’s coordinates. The example demonstrates React state management to track mouse movement, updating the circle’s position on every move event. It uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks alongside D3 v6 for the SVG rendering, with an initial circle centered at 480, 250. The visualization responds interactively in real time, showcasing a minimal integration of React and D3 for dynamic graphics.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time as the mouse moves. Built with React and D3 v7, the visualization uses React's `useState` hook to store the mouse coordinates and a `useCallback` handler to update them on every `onMouseMove` event. The circle is rendered as an SVG `<circle>` element, with its `cx` and `cy` attributes bound directly to the current mouse position, creating a smooth, direct response to user input.

Mouse Follower

A single circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time. The visualization demonstrates React’s state management and event handling, using the `useState` hook to track cursor coordinates and the `onMouseMove` event to update them. The circle’s center is bound to the `mousePosition` state, and its radius is fixed at 30 pixels. The code renders the scene with React and ReactDOM, while D3 is loaded but not explicitly used in the visible logic.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor as it moves across an SVG canvas, creating a simple interactive pointer-tracking effect. The visualization uses React state to store the cursor's coordinates and updates the circle's position through an `onMouseMove` event handler. Rendered with D3 v7 and React 18, the SVG circle has an aquamarine fill with a green stroke. The code relies on React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage and update the mouse position efficiently.

Mouse follower

A circle tracks the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, reacting instantly to movement. The visualization demonstrates state management in React, using the `useState` hook to store cursor coordinates and `useCallback` to optimize the mouse-move handler. The SVG circle updates its `cx` and `cy` attributes based on those coordinates, rendered via ReactDOM. The example uses D3.js v7 only for its bundled build, while the core interaction is purely React-driven.

Mouse Follower

A single circle follows the mouse cursor in real time across an SVG canvas. The circle’s position updates directly from pointer movement events, not from any external dataset. The example uses React’s `useState` hook to manage the live mouse coordinates, with an `onMouseMove` handler on the SVG element. D3.js v7 is loaded in the page, though the interaction relies entirely on React state updates and native SVG rendering. The SVG viewport is a fixed 960 by 500 pixels, and the circle has a radius of 30 pixels.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time as the pointer moves. The visualization uses React state to track mouse coordinates via the `onMouseMove` event handler and renders a single `<circle>` element with D3 v7’s selection-free React integration. The SVG viewport is fixed at 960 by 500 pixels, and the circle’s center tracks the clientX and clientY values directly.
