Abstract implementation of @dnd-kit, which can be extended by concrete implementation layers, such as @dnd-kit/dom.
This package provides the core abstractions and utilities for implementing drag and drop functionality. It serves as the foundation for building concrete implementation layers on top of @dnd-kit, such as the DOM implementation layer.
[!NOTE] This package is not meant to be used by most consumers, unless you are planning on building a concrete implementation layer on top of @dnd-kit.
The library defines two main entity types:
- Draggable: Represents elements that can be dragged
- Droppable: Represents elements that can receive dragged items
Sensors are responsible for detecting and initiating drag operations. They handle user interactions and translate them into drag operations. The library provides:
- Abstract
Sensorbase class - Support for multiple sensor types
- Custom sensor configuration
- Configurable sensor options
The collision system provides:
- Multiple collision detection strategies
- Priority-based collision resolution
- Custom collision detectors
- Collision observation and management
The plugin system allows extending core functionality:
- Plugin-based architecture
- Plugin configuration and descriptors
- Plugin lifecycle management
Modifiers provide a way to transform or modify drag operations:
- Abstract
Modifierbase class - Ability to modify coordinates and operations
- Chainable modifier system
- Configurable modifier options
-
DragDropManager: Manages drag and drop state and operations -
Draggable: Interface for draggable elements -
Droppable: Interface for droppable elements -
Plugin: Base class for plugins -
Sensor: Abstract base class for sensors -
Modifier: Abstract base class to modify drag operations
