What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A jQuery plugin that adds drag-and-drop sorting to list items, with strong support for nested containers and connected lists. It is deliberately minimal, handling only sorting and leaving animations and autoscrolling to the developer.

Use cases

  • sort list items with drag and drop in jquery
  • reorder nested lists with drag and drop
  • connect multiple sortable lists
  • sortable bootstrap menu items
  • drag and drop table row sorting

When to choose

  • you need robust nested sortable lists that other jquery plugins handle poorly
  • you want a tiny, dependency-light sorting plugin (~3kb gzipped)
  • you only need sorting and are fine implementing animations yourself

When to avoid

  • you need built-in animations or autoscrolling
  • you are not using jquery
  • you need a maintained solution with active development
