Hello friends, today in this blog, you will learn how to create drag & drop or sortable lists using HTML, CSS, and Sortable JS. In our previous blog, we saw how to create drag & drop or browse features in Javascript. Earlier, I shared many projects related to javascript, you can check if you want, and don't forget to check HTML, CSS, and Javascript projects.
Drag and drop is a marking device gesture in which the user selects a virtual thing by “grabbing” it and dragging it to a separate area or onto another virtual thing. Sortable JS is a Javascript library that lets you sort or reorder lists by dragging and dropping list items.

In this program [Drag & Drop List or Sortable List], there are five lists or cards on the webpage and these are draggable items or lists. Users can easily reorder the items in an underorder list, giving users a visual dimension to particular actions and modifications. If you’re feeling difficulty understanding what I am saying. You can check the source code or preview.
The preview is available here.
