A mouse follower demonstrates a simple interactive visualization using React and D3. A single black circle tracks the user's cursor as it moves across an SVG canvas, updating its position in real time. The application uses React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage the mouse coordinates, while the `onMouseMove` event handler captures the clientX and clientY values. D3 v5 is loaded but only used for its `arc` import, which is not actually called in the visible code. The SVG rendering approach is handled entirely through React's JSX syntax.

mouse follower

A single black circle on an SVG canvas tracks the user's mouse cursor in real time, creating a simple interactive visual. The example demonstrates state management in React, using the `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to update the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes on every `mousemove` event. Rendered with SVG elements, the circle is positioned via React's `onMouseMove` handler, while D3 v5 and React 16 are loaded externally. No data source is involved; the visualization purely reacts to pointer movement within the 960 by 500 pixel viewport.

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

A single black circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas. The example demonstrates how React manages dynamic state alongside D3’s rendering environment. Using React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, the component tracks mouse coordinates from the SVG’s `onMouseMove` event and updates the circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes. The circle is rendered via React’s JSX, while D3 v5 is loaded but not directly used for interaction; the visualization relies entirely on React’s state updates to redraw the SVG element in real time.

Mouse Follower

An interactive visualization renders a single circle that tracks the mouse cursor in real time. The React application uses the `useState` hook to store the cursor’s `clientX` and `clientY` coordinates, updating each mouse move. An SVG circle’s `cx` and `cy` attributes are bound to these state values, producing a smooth follower effect. The example demonstrates combining React’s event handling with D3’s SVG manipulation capabilities for a simple, direct user interface.

Mouse Follower

A React-based SVG visualization tracks the mouse cursor with a single orange circle, updating its position in real time as the user moves across the viewport. The app uses React’s `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to manage the cursor coordinates, while D3’s `arc` import is included but unused. The circle renders via SVG inside a fixed 960×500 canvas, with the initial position centered before any mouse movement. The `onMouseMove` event handler on the `<svg>` element captures client coordinates and triggers a state update, seamlessly animating the follower through React’s rendering lifecycle.

Mouse Follower

A single black circle tracks the mouse in real time within an SVG canvas. The example uses React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks to capture the mouse position via the SVG `onMouseMove` event, updating the circle's `cx` and `cy` attributes. The visualization demonstrates a minimal interactive pattern, relying on React for state management and D3 v5 only for SVG rendering support, with no data source beyond the live pointer coordinates.

Mouse follower

A React application renders an SVG circle that tracks the mouse cursor in real time. The circle's position updates via React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, which handle `mousemove` events on the SVG element. The example demonstrates simple interactive rendering with D3's `arc` import unused, relying instead on React's declarative state management. The visualization uses a 960x500 SVG canvas with a fixed circle radius, showing how React can manage dynamic visual updates without explicit D3 selection or transition APIs.

mouse follower

An SVG circle tracks the mouse as it moves across a full-window canvas. The visualization updates the circle's horizontal and vertical coordinates in real time based on pointer events. Built with React's `useState` and `useCallback` hooks, the component re-renders whenever the mouse position changes. The example uses D3.js v5 for SVG rendering and React 18 for component management.
