Draggin.js

A fully multi-platform Javascript library for quickly and easily creating interactive user interfaces.

DEMO

Inspiration

This project was created with simplicity and abstraction in mind. Draggin.js is the first complete drag and drop library that you can use without writing a single line of Javascript. I wanted a library that I could use with ease, instead of spending extra time configuring a heavy library.

Features

• SERIOUSLY Lightweight (2.5kb when compressed)
• Fully touch compatible
• No need to write Javascript code
• Once included, is instantly usable
• Editable text!
• Leverages GPU for increased performance
• ZERO DEPENDENCIES
  • Written in vanilla Javascript
  • No extraneous CSS or JS needed

Get Started

To use the script, simply include it in your webpage in a <script> tag:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://chrisnunes.net/draggin.js"></script>

OR

Download the draggin.min.js file from this repository and include it in your webpage:

<script type="text/javascript" src="draggin.min.js"></script>

Usage

Draggin.js is designed with simplicity in mind. Once you have included the script in your page, all you have to do is render an element and give it a class of "draggable."

<h1 class="draggable">Hello, World!</h1>

To use the editable text that is part of Draggin.js, use any text element and give it a class of "text.

<h1 class="text">Hello, World!</h1>
<p class="text">Hello, World!</p>
<a href="#" class="text">Hello, World!</a>
<div class="text">Hello, World!</div>

All of the above are valid examples of editable text. You can also combine both classes for the intended experience. Simply click once to drag elements, and double click to edit text.

<h1 class="draggable text">Both tags work at the same time!</h1>
