Nestable is a jQuery/Zepto plugin that adds drag-and-drop reordering to hierarchical nested HTML lists, with mouse and touch support. It serializes the list structure to JSON and fires change events on reorder.

Use cases

  • drag and drop nested list reordering
  • sortable tree menu with touch support
  • serialize nested list to JSON
  • reorder menu items in a CMS
  • drag items between multiple lists

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight jQuery-based nested drag-and-drop list
  • you want mouse and touch compatibility for reordering hierarchies
  • you need JSON serialization of a nested list structure

When to avoid

  • you need an actively maintained or supported library
  • you are not using jQuery or Zepto
  • you need advanced features beyond basic nesting and reordering
  • you need a license for commercial redistribution clarity
