## What it is
jquery.pep.js is a lightweight jQuery plugin that adds kinetic drag-and-drop with inertia to DOM elements on both mobile and desktop. It exposes a simple API with lifecycle callbacks and many configuration options for customizing drag behavior.

## Use cases
- make elements draggable on touch devices
- add inertia-based dragging to a web page
- implement draggable cards or sliders with jQuery
- support drag interactions across mobile and desktop browsers
- customize drag start/stop/easing behavior with callbacks

## When to choose
- you already use jQuery and need quick kinetic drag support
- you need consistent drag behavior on both touch and mouse devices
- you want a small, configurable drag plugin with lifecycle hooks

## When to avoid
- you are not using jQuery in your project
- you need a modern framework-native drag-and-drop solution
- the project requires actively maintained dependencies (last release 2019, no license file)
