Vue-draggable-plus is a drag-and-drop component library that supports both Vue 3 and Vue 2.
The tool solves the problem of implementing drag-and-drop and sortable list functionality across different Vue versions. It wraps SortableJS to provide a Vue-native interface, allowing developers to add draggable and sortable behavior to lists and grids without writing low-level interaction code. The component handles the complexity of managing drag state and DOM updates through Vue's reactivity system.
Developers should choose this tool if they need drag-and-drop functionality in a Vue application and want to avoid managing a JavaScript library directly. It suits projects that require sortable lists, reorderable grids, or any interface where users need to rearrange items by dragging. The dual Vue 2 and Vue 3 support makes it valuable for teams maintaining applications across both versions or planning migrations between them. The library is built with TypeScript, providing type safety for developers using typed Vue projects.
The project shows consistent maintenance with regular updates addressing bug fixes and feature requests. Pull requests receive timely review and integration. The codebase demonstrates active development focused on stability and compatibility across Vue versions, with attention paid to edge cases in drag-and-drop behavior and integration with Vue's reactivity model.
