A smiley face follows the mouse cursor across the screen, rendered as SVG circles on a hidden-background canvas. Using React hooks (`useState`, `useCallback`) for state management and D3 v5 for event handling, the component tracks pointer coordinates and updates the face’s position accordingly. D3’s mouse interaction API reads the cursor location relative to the container, while React’s state-driven re-rendering animates the yellow circle face, eyes, and smile in real time.

Mouse Follower

A smiley face rendered in SVG follows the mouse cursor across a yellow background. The face, built from React components for the background circle, eyes, and a d3.arc-generated mouth, updates its position via React state on every mousemove event. The visualization uses React’s useCallback and useState hooks to track client coordinates, re-rendering the face container at the new location.

A yellow smiley face follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The face’s components—eyes, brows, and an arc-shaped mouth—are built with React state and D3’s `arc` generator, repositioned via a `transform` attribute on each mouse move. The example uses `useState` and `useCallback` to track cursor coordinates, and ReactDOM renders the interactive graphic.

Mouse Follower

This is a React application that renders a single smiley face as an SVG circle, which follows the mouse cursor across the screen. The component tracks pointer movement through React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, updating the circle's center coordinates with each mouse event. The SVG is rendered with React, while the page loads React and D3 v5 from CDN links in the HTML. The interactive behavior is driven entirely by React's event handling, not by D3's own mouse utilities.

Mouse follower

A single yellow smiley face, rendered as an SVG circle with two smaller black circles for eyes, follows the mouse cursor across a 960×500 viewport. The React component tracks pointer movement via an `onMouseMove` handler and updates the face’s `cx` and `cy` attributes in state. D3’s `arc` utility is imported but unused; rendering relies entirely on React’s declarative SVG elements with no data source.

Mouse Follower

A yellow smiley face, built from SVG circles and an arc, tracks the cursor across a full-screen canvas. The face renders with React components, including a d3.arc-generated mouth, while the center position updates via React state on mouse events. The app uses React's useCallback and useState hooks to manage the mouse coordinates, drawing the face inside a transparent SVG that spans the viewport.

Mouse Follower

A smiley face follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, demonstrating how React state updates can drive dynamic D3 visualizations. The example uses React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to track mouse coordinates, which are captured via an `onMouseMove` event handler on the SVG element. A single yellow circle with a black stroke and two smaller eye circles are rendered, with the main circle's position updating in real-time to match the cursor. The code leverages d3.v7 for SVG utilities and React 16.9 for component-based rendering.

Mouse Follower

A smiley face rendered in SVG follows the cursor inside a 960×500 viewport. The React component tracks mouse movement via the `onMouseMove` handler and updates the circle’s position using state and the `useCallback` hook. The face is drawn with a yellow circle and two black eye circles, though the eyes remain static while the entire group moves. Rendering relies on React DOM with SVG elements, and the example highlights state-driven updates without external data sources.

Mouse Follower

A yellow smiley face follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, redrawing its position on every mouse movement event. The face is built from reusable React components—a yellow circle background, two black eye circles, and a mouth drawn with `d3.arc()`—all composed within a `<g>` transform. React state tracks the cursor’s `clientX` and `clientY` coordinates, triggering re-renders via `useState` and `useCallback`. A dropdown menu is present but not connected to the visualization.
