- Beautiful and natural movement of items π
- Accessible: powerful keyboard and screen reader support βΏοΈ
- Extremely performant π
- Clean and powerful api which is simple to get started with
- Plays extremely well with standard browser interactions
- Unopinionated styling
- No creation of additional wrapper dom nodes - flexbox and focus management friendly!
We have created a free course on egghead.io π₯ to help you get started with react-beautiful-dnd as quickly as possible.
- Vertical lists β
- Horizontal lists β
- Movement between lists (β€ β β€)
- Combining items
- Mouse π, keyboard πΉβΏοΈ and touch ππ± (mobile, tablet and so on) support
- Multi drag support
- Incredible screen reader support βΏοΈ - we provide an amazing experience for english screen readers out of the box π¦. We also provide complete customisation control and internationalisation support for those who need it π
- Conditional dragging and conditional dropping
- Multiple independent lists on the one page
- Flexible item sizes - the draggable items can have different heights (vertical lists) or widths (horizontal lists)
- Add and remove items during a drag
- Compatible with semantic
<table>reordering - table pattern - Auto scrolling - automatically scroll containers and the window as required during a drag (even with keyboard π₯)
- Custom drag handles - you can drag a whole item by just a part of it
- Compatible with
ReactDOM.createPortal- portal pattern - π² Tree support through the
@atlaskit/treepackage - A
<Droppable />list can be a scroll container (without a scrollable parent) or be the child of a scroll container (that also does not have a scrollable parent) - Independent nested lists - a list can be a child of another list, but you cannot drag items from the parent list into a child list
- Server side rendering (SSR) compatible - see resetServerContext()
- Plays well with nested interactive elements by default
react-beautiful-dnd exists to create beautiful drag and drop for lists that anyone can use - even people who cannot see. For a good overview of the history and motivations of the project you can take a look at these external resources:
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.
