Just a random question, is Sortable the most used dnd library in Vue nowadays? I like the fact that there is a VueUse wrapper but I also heard about https://drag-and-drop.formkit.com/ (never tried it though).

[benjamincanac]

There is also https://github.com/Alfred-Skyblue/vue-draggable-plus which implies that SortableJS doesn't have good support for Vue3. Again, I'm just wondering here if sortable is the best library to demonstrate in our examples.

[stijns96]

Good question. I know I tried to find better packages for quite some time (some time ago), but haven't checked these.

Is it my phone or is https://drag-and-drop.formkit.com/ really slow and laggy?

I'll check it out!

There is a React example of drag and drop for TanStack Table that uses @dnd-kit/sortable but not sure there is an equivalent for Vue. https://tanstack.com/table/v8/docs/framework/react/examples/row-dnd

Mhh, looks like they are actively working on making it work for other languages as well.

I'll have a better look tomorrow on my laptop. Dnd looks super promising, but I don't think there is much left then the 2 packages you shared. Additionally, all of the examples comes down to the same implementation, but from another import.

Alright, so...

Drag & Drop Libraries

• dnd-kit
  Looks really nice, but no Vue support at the moment. This has been an open issue since 2023.
  See: #1221, #1194

• VueDraggablePlus

  • 📦 92,546 weekly installs
  • 🛠 Last update 4 months ago
  • Claims to solve the same pain points as VueUse (docs)
  • Allows adding any ref to make a list sortable
  • ✅ Supports dual lists (unlike VueUse, which only supports single lists)
  • ✅ Nesting support available

• FormKit Drag & Drop

  • 📦 41,353 weekly downloads
  • 🛠 Last update 12 days ago
  • Similar to VueDraggablePlus
  • ✅ Multi drag support available
  • Nesting support unclear
  • ⚠️ Feels laggy on mobile, though this could be due to the demo/hero implementation

I'll leave it up to you @benjamincanac to determine what you'd like to have as main library for examples.

u can use vueuse

[stijns96]

u can use vueuse

Hi @vitalijalbu, that is what the whole discussion is about. I'm using VueUse in my example, but we're looking for a better solution.

[benjamincanac]

I think we can keep VueUse for the examples like you did for the Accordion.

Thanks @stijns96! 😊
