A circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The visualization demonstrates interactive state management in React, where mouse movement events update the circle's position. The code uses React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track cursor coordinates, and renders the result as an SVG circle element. The page loads React 17, ReactDOM, and D3 v7 from a CDN, with the application contained in a single `index.js` file. The circle starts at the center of the 960x500 viewport and moves responsively to user input.

Mouse follower

This example shows a circle that follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. It demonstrates React state management with the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, where mouse coordinates from the `onMouseMove` event update the circle’s position. The visualization renders with React DOM into an SVG element using d3.v7, with the initial circle centered at the viewport midpoint.

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 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 circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The visualization demonstrates React's state management with D3's event handling, using a `useState` hook to track cursor coordinates and a `useCallback` hook to efficiently update the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes on every mouse move. The D3 v5 library renders the SVG element.

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 across an SVG canvas. The example demonstrates React state management for tracking pointer position and rendering a visual response. The component uses `useState` to store mouse coordinates and `useCallback` to handle the `onMouseMove` event, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes on each move. The SVG element listens for mouse events, and ReactDOM renders the interactive graphic. The circle is styled with a default black fill and no animation or smoothing, providing a direct, immediate link between input and visual output.

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.
