Drag and drop progress: add "order" construct, and allow drop into new swimlane. Graph libraries don't have ranking logic for single nodes (no edges), so this is my implementation. Performance getting better; lots of debug overhead.

Next is fixing drop previews/ hover states.

Drag and drop UI's on the web looks effortless on the surface.

Under the hood: drag/drop listeners, recalculating drop zones, shadow nodes, rebuilding the graph, calculating chain breaks/reconnects, re-rendering nodes, etc.

Still WIP (buggy!) myself, but fun to see it coming together.

Inspired by this trend of "interactive" feature cards I've seen on a lot of websites lately... CSS transform is underrated.

Finally tackled some simple SVG animation for a landing page refresh. Easer than I anticipated for a nice outcome.

Contrary to popular opinion - I used Vue❤️
