Build a Kanban board with dnd kit and React
Blog post from LogRocket
dnd kit is presented as a promising alternative to the now unmaintained react-beautiful-dnd for implementing drag-and-drop features in React applications. This guide walks developers through setting up a basic Kanban board using dnd kit, which includes components like DndContext, Draggable, Droppable, and various sensors for handling different input methods. The tutorial details the process of creating a React project with Chakra UI, installing the dnd-kit/core package, and building the KanbanCard, KanbanLane, and KanbanBoard components. While dnd kit lacks some advanced features of react-beautiful-dnd, it is highlighted for its potential, performance, and extensibility, encouraging community contributions to enhance its capabilities.
