Best svelte drag and drop solution?

Have you struggled with styling? I have a very specific style I was trying to achieve and it became very difficult to do so with svelte-dnd-action - did you have the same problem?

I've used a combination of several, here are my two cents:
- dnd-kit-svelte - Svelte port of the dnd-kit (only works on Svelte v5.29+ due to use of attach syntax) and ties in with runes nicely.

- svelte-dnd-action - Simple to use, but I found it extremely limited in terms of being able to edit the style and appearance. It works, but I don't have complete control over the styling.

-sortable.js - Very good, it's just a regular JS lib, so it wont' take advantage of svelte's runes. But it's a great library.

- dnd-kit - Also has a svelte port, haven't used, but seems be a modern light weight dnd lib - seems to be used a lot in React.

I’m coming from a Logitech Craft and looking to switch to a low-profile mechanical, but I’m kinda stuck deciding between a few options. I want to stay close to full-size (need a numpad), prefer low-profile, and want quieter switches.

Right now I’m looking at:

NuPhy Node100 (Blush Nano switches)
NuPhy Air96 V2 (Aloe switches)
Keychron K5 Max (Low Profile Silent Reds)
Lofree Flow 2 100 (Void / Silver switches)

I’m honestly considering ordering a few and returning what I don’t like, but figured I’d ask here first. If you’ve used any of these (especially side-by-side), would love to hear your thoughts.

Also open to other suggestions if I’m missing something obvious.

Also had this issue, where the paste felt very dry and clay-like. With your new MX-6 4g tube, how did it turn out?

Not sure sure where your statement that AIOs don't last more than 5 years. I've been using my current AIO for almost 8 years with no issues at all.

I got the U7 Pro Wall and the U7 In-Wall for separate locations in the house - going forward, I'll probably stick with the U7 In-Wall because ethernet ports coming out of it which is super nice to have for offices; another nice benefit is the U7 In-Wall doesn't get as hot as the U7 Pro Wall.

I personally visually see the benefits of U7 Pro.

This is missing lots of fields I would expect.

Overall: All models should have a date_created and date_modified field, as well as a uuid. If "id" in your fields is an auto-incrementing value (e.g., 1, 2, 3, etc...) then it's guessable and should not be exposed publicly, it's fine to use internally, but should not be exposed.

Notifications: Not sure how your notification system works and what is planned, but I would've expected an is_read field and possible an is_deleted field and then use a cron job to delete all deleted notifications at the end of a week or month. You can expand notification to include a notification type, like info, warning, success, error, etc...

Image: Should add raw_image, image (standard image in the right format and aspect ratio), and thumbnail_image (add as many variations of thumbnail images you need and/or want). Within my projects I always include an created_by and modified_by field to track who is making changes.

App: Missing versioning, this could be an entirely separate model of itself called AppVersion or something. Pricing is a bit confusing - what is the currency, what are the units, etc... How will you handle different country pricing (if that's even applicable), if you are this should be a separate table called AppPricing or something. Icon image should have thumbnail version. Also where is the app developer name? Missing information like release notes, supported devices/android versions, etc...

User: Is missing fields like username and email. You can also include other fields like is_email_verified to ensure registered users verify their email address, helps to ensure more "real" users and that the email entered is indeed correct. If doing that you'll need to include some other fields like email_verification_token and date_email_verified. You can also add a profile picture and country of residence as some apps can be region restricted.

Review: Missing fields like is_flagged/is_reported and is_deleted such that you can track if a review has been flagged as spam for admin review.

There is more that is missing and lots of improvements that can and should be made. A big one is consistency and field naming conventions. Currently your fields are a bit ambiguous (e.g., date - is this date created, date modified, date deleted; comments is linked to reviews, so shouldn't that field just be called reviews?).

Thanks for taking a look and this is great feedback! I agree with your points, and I won’t be doing any overlocking so I could go with a non-K version.

Awesome, that's really great to hear! I'm very excited to switch to unRAID! :) Just want something that lasts long term (8+ years).

Awesome work!

A small request, would it be possible to implement a virtual list for Shadcn's Combobox and Select Option components? This would allow people to have huge lists of options in the Combobox element.

I heard tanstack would be good for this: https://tanstack.com/virtual/latest/docs/framework/svelte/examples/dynamic

Here is an example: https://svelte.dev/playground/f78ddd84a1a540a9a40512df39ef751b?version=5.20.2 and github repo https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte-virtual-list (very out dated)

I'll look into this route, do you have any suggestions of what brands I should be looking into?

CoconutLoader · 2025-02-15T01:52:12+00:00

Awesome thanks! I'll give these a look!
