Drag and drop

The drag and drop component allows users to reposition, rearrange, and group items into more relevant and appropriate layouts.

Warning alert:Deprecated feature

This implementation has been deprecated in favor of a newer implementation, and is no longer getting maintained or enhanced. To learn more about the process, visit our about page.

You can use the <DragDrop> component to move items in or between lists. The <DragDrop> component should contain <Droppable> components which contain <Draggable> components.

import React from 'react';
import { DragDrop, Draggable, Droppable } from '@patternfly/react-core/deprecated';

const DragDropCodeSample: React.FunctionComponent = () => (
  <DragDrop>
    {' '}
    {/* DragDrop houses the context for dragging and dropping */}
    <Droppable>
      <Draggable>You can put anything here! It will be wrapped in a styled div.</Draggable>
      <Draggable>You can have as many Draggables as you like.</Draggable>
    </Droppable>
    <Droppable>
      {' '}
      {/* You can also have many droppables! */}
      <Draggable />
    </Droppable>
  </DragDrop>
);

Note: Keyboard accessibility and screen reader accessibility are still in development.
