Hi, thanks for this update. Is it totally impossible now to use any kind of drag animations in this new Pragmatic DND library? The blue line to show where the item will go is neat, but is insufficient for our use case. Would be great if you can provide an example that showcases similar animations to the ones that were present in react-beautiful-dnd.

Been following the journey on twitter, excited to see this released! Thanks for the amazing contributions!

React native support? And is there any benefits of going to Pragmatic with @atlaskit/pragmatic-drag-and-drop-react-beautiful-dnd-migration if react-beautiful-dnd is working out fine for us?

React native support?

No. Pragmatic drag and drop uses web platform drag and drop functionality, and will work for web browsers on iOS and Android. However, it does not call native code directly (eg UIKit drag and drop) and so is not an appropriate tool for react native.

is there any benefits of going to Pragmatic with @atlaskit/pragmatic-drag-and-drop-react-beautiful-dnd-migration if react-beautiful-dnd is working out fine for us?

• The migration layer allows you to remove your dependency on react-beautiful-dnd (and on it's dependencies, such as redux and react-redux).
• If you are migrating to Pragmatic drag and drop in other places, the migration layer can help make react-beautiful-dnd experiences feel more like Pragmatic drag and drop experiences - helping overall visual consistency
• There are some nice performance benefits on offer.

All that said, if you are not interested in moving to Pragmatic drag and drop more fully in the longer term, then the migration layer is likely not the right option for you. The migration layer is more of a stepping stone to a full migration.

I hope that helps @masudhossain!

Will the migration work for NextJS?
(I have a wrapper to fix hydration issue).

If I want to fully migrate a simple dnd list how much time should it take?

Hi there,
Will there be a migration guide from react-beautiful-dnd to pragmatic-drag-and-drop ?
Thanks

I agree, the blue line and no animation feels like a terrible user experience. Decided to stay on this version until it's out.
