How to dynamically create and attach an element to the dom when a user clicks a button in VueJS

Question

I'm trying to create a vue webapp whereby a shape (eg a square) is attached to the web page on the spot where a user clicks. But I can't seem to get vue to create the shape and attach it. This is my code, but it doesn't seem to do anything.

<template>
    <div class="shapepage" @click="attachShape"></div>
</template>

<script>
export default {
    name: "ShapePage",
    methods: {
        attachShape: (e) => {
            render:  (createElement) => {
                return createElement('div', {
                    style: {
                        width: "100px",
                        height: "100px",
                        background: "red",
                        color: "white",
                        position: "absolute",
                        left: "50",
                        top: "50"
                    }
                });
            }
        }
    }
}
</script>

<style>
body {
    background-color: rgba(245, 245, 245, 1);
}

.shapepage {
    margin-top: 20px;
    max-width: 500px;
    height: 500px;
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
    background-color: #fff;
    box-shadow: 0px 0px 5px 1px grey;
}
</style>

In my opinion , render just like a function that seems like data() ,so I think you can not use in that way,
If my opinion is right , the render function may same like the render in React.js , it will return a VNode Tree, and in default vue(use template expect render), it will make by template and run when the VNode should be refresh
I hope I can help you
