## What it is
React wrapper components around the smooth-dnd library providing fast, lightweight drag-and-drop and sortable lists with CSS-transition-based animations. It offers configurable containers and draggable items covering many drag-and-drop scenarios.

## Use cases
- sortable list in react
- drag and drop reordering of cards
- kanban board with draggable columns
- move items between multiple lists
- horizontal carousel with draggable items
- drag to reorder table rows

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight React drag-and-drop library with hardware-accelerated animations
- you want sortable lists with many configuration options like axis locking, drag handles, and cross-container moves
- you prefer CSS-transition animations over JS-driven ones

## When to avoid
- you need touch/gesture support beyond basic dragging or mobile-first dnd
- you want a library with frequent updates and active maintenance
- you need drag-and-drop for file uploads rather than list reordering

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: animation, ui-components
- domain: frontend, web-development
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: react, drag-and-drop, sortable, smooth-dnd, typescript, web-server
