Lovely work! Thank you for writing this—and for providing such a thorough explanation of its capabilities (via the website and this bluesky thread)

Bookmarked. I've got a use for this coming up soon

Event delegation in action: v2: 100 draggable elements = 300 event listeners v3: 100 draggable elements = 3 event listeners (total) Memory usage stays flat as you scale. No more hitting browser event listener limits.

Plugin system design: Each plugin handles one behavior. Plugin errors are isolated - if one fails, others keep working. Write a 10-line plugin for magnetic snapping, another for momentum scrolling. Compose exactly what you need.

Only pay for(in bytes) what you use: Basic dragging is small. Each plugin adds only its own weight. Import just what you use instead of paying for the whole library upfront.
