## What it is
Swapy is a framework-agnostic JavaScript/TypeScript library that converts any HTML layout into a drag-to-swap layout with minimal code. It works with any frontend framework and is dual-licensed under GPLv3 or a commercial license.

## Use cases
- add drag-to-swap behavior to a dashboard grid
- let users rearrange widgets by dragging
- make sortable swap layouts without heavy drag-and-drop libraries
- build customizable home screen layouts
- swap cards in a kanban-like layout by dragging

## When to choose
- you want simple drag-to-swap interactions with a few lines of code
- you need a framework-agnostic solution usable with React, Vue, Svelte, or vanilla JS
- your project is open-source and GPL-compatible

## When to avoid
- you need full drag-and-drop features like sorting across lists or nested containers
- you cannot comply with GPLv3 and don't want to buy a commercial license
- you need touch-free accessibility-first reordering only

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: frontend, web-development
- platform: browser, cross-platform
