This example shows a single circle that continuously tracks the user’s cursor within an SVG canvas, centering itself on the mouse’s current coordinates. The visualization relies on React’s `useState` and `useCallback` to capture `clientX` and `clientY` from the SVG’s `onMouseMove` event, updating the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes in real time. Initially positioned at the canvas center, the circle reacts instantly to any pointer movement, demonstrating a minimal interactive pattern with no external data source.

Mouse follower

This example demonstrates a mouse-follower visualization: a circle that tracks the cursor’s position across an SVG canvas. The circle moves continuously as the user moves the mouse, with its center coordinates updated from the event’s `clientX` and `clientY` values. The implementation uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage and update the mouse position, while the `<svg>` element’s `onMouseMove` handler triggers the state change. The rendering is done via SVG, with a single `<circle>` element whose `cx` and `cy` attributes are bound to the current position. D3 is loaded but not used for interaction or data processing.

Mouse Follower

This example shows a single circle that follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. Built with React and D3 v5, it uses React’s `useState` hook to track the cursor’s clientX and clientY coordinates on every `mousemove` event, then re-renders the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes to match. The `useCallback` hook memoizes the event handler, and the initial mouse position is set to the canvas center. The rendering uses ReactDOM to mount the SVG, with no external data source.

Mouse Follower

A simple interactive visualization renders a single circle that follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The circle’s position updates in real time, tracking the user's pointer movement. The example uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` to manage the mouse coordinates, and renders the circle via an SVG `<circle>` element with `cx` and `cy` attributes set from the current mouse position. The `onMouseMove` event handler on the SVG element captures the cursor's `clientX` and `clientY` values, which are then used to update the circle’s location.

Mouse Follower

A single circle follows the mouse cursor within an SVG canvas. The example demonstrates the basic concept of tracking pointer movement and updating a visual element's position in response. It is built with React hooks, specifically `useState` to manage the circle's coordinates and `useCallback` to handle the `onMouseMove` event, rendering the circle with SVG attributes `cx` and `cy`. The scene is initialized with the circle centered, and no external data source is used.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor across a 960-by-500 SVG canvas, updating its center position in real time. Built with React using the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, the app listens for `onMouseMove` events on the SVG element and passes the cursor's `clientX`/`clientY` coordinates to the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes. The visualization uses D3.js version 5 primarily for the SVG rendering within a React framework, with no external data source.

Mouse Follower

A single circle follows the mouse cursor across a full-screen SVG canvas. Built with React and SVG, the example uses the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track `clientX` and `clientY` coordinates from the SVG element's `onMouseMove` event, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes in real time. The circle starts at the center of the viewport and moves smoothly with pointer input.

Mouse Follower

A circle follows the mouse cursor within an SVG canvas, with its center position updating live to match the pointer's coordinates. The visualization uses React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage cursor tracking, while `ReactDOM` renders the SVG element and its circle to the page. The SVG's `onMouseMove` event handler captures the cursor position, and the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes are updated accordingly with a fixed radius of 30 pixels.

Mouse Follower

This example shows a circle that continuously follows the mouse cursor across a full-window SVG canvas. Built with React, it tracks the cursor’s `clientX` and `clientY` coordinates through an `onMouseMove` event handler, storing the position in state via `useState` and updating the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes accordingly. The `useCallback` hook optimizes the event handler, and the component renders a single SVG `<circle>` element without any data source.
