How can I make hinge-constraint look at mouse position?

Basically the title, how could I do this?

You should calculate rotation angles for the Y and X axes, apply them to the hinges, then you connect it to the mouse event.

function = update(mouse)
    local mouse_position = mouse.Hit.Position

    local rotationY = math.atan2(mouse_position.X - hingeY.Position.X, 1)
    local rotationX = math.atan2(mouse_position.Y - hingeX.Position.Y, 1)

    hingeY.CFrame = CFrame.fromEulerAnglesYXZ(0, rotationY, 0)
    hingeX.CFrame = CFrame.fromEulerAnglesYXZ(rotationX, 0, 0)
end

game:GetService("UserInputService").InputChanged:Connect(function(input)
    if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseMovement then
        update(input)
    end
end)
