react-beautiful-dnd is drag and drop library for react.js, developed by Atlassian.
There are a lot of libraries out there that allow for drag and drop interactions within React. Most notable of these is the amazing react-dnd
. It does an incredible job at providing a great set of drag and drop primitives which work especially well with the wildly inconsistent html5 drag and drop feature. react-beautiful-dnd
is a higher level abstraction specifically built for lists (vertical, horizontal, movement between lists, nested lists and so on). Within that subset of functionality react-beautiful-dnd
offers a powerful, natural and beautiful drag and drop experience. However, it does not provide the breadth of functionality offered by react-dnd
. So react-beautiful-dnd
might not be for you depending on what your use case is.
