## What it is
An AngularJS directive that wraps jQuery UI Sortable, enabling drag-and-drop reordering of arrays bound to ng-repeat lists. It supports connected lists and syncs DOM changes back to the underlying AngularJS models.

## Use cases
- drag and drop reordering of list items in AngularJS
- sortable ng-repeat lists
- reorder items between connected lists
- drag-and-drop todo or task list ordering
- sort array data via drag and drop in Angular 1.x app

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy AngularJS 1.x app already using jQuery UI
- you need drag-and-drop sorting bound to AngularJS models

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new project with modern Angular, React, or Vue
- you want a dependency-free drag-and-drop solution
- you need actively maintained software

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: frontend, web-development
- platform: browser
- tags: angularjs, drag-and-drop, jquery-ui, sortable, directive, javascript
