What is it?
This drag-n-drop functionality is a fun alternative to the standard click flow for creators to manage their store inventory. We initially used the default HTML drag behavior, which led to many visual errors making the experience unintuitive or clunky to use. I updated our approach to use a custom implementation and tackled the resulting performance issues while also fixing the styling and visuals to be much easier to use. I went through many iterations to nail it down to be performant and smooth due to handling the drag and drop manually. I worked with product and design to iterate, bug test, and push to its limits to ensure it worked as well as possible.
