## What it is
A Vue.js component (Vue 2) and directive (Vue 1) that adds drag-and-drop reordering to lists, built on top of Sortable.js. It keeps the HTML DOM and the Vue view model array in sync as items are dragged.

## Use cases
- reorder items in a to-do list by dragging
- drag and drop between multiple lists in Vue
- make vuetify or element-ui components draggable
- sortable kanban-style columns in a Vue app
- touch-friendly drag reordering on mobile web
- sync drag-and-drop changes with the Vue view model array

## When to choose
- you need drag-and-drop list reordering in a Vue 2 application
- you want Sortable.js features (touch, handles, auto-scroll, cross-list dragging) with Vue integration
- you need the DOM and your data array to stay in sync automatically
- you want to wrap existing UI library components as draggable

## When to avoid
- you are using Vue 3 - use vue.draggable.next instead
- you need drag-and-drop outside of Vue
- you need a framework-agnostic solution without Vue
