  • Drag and drop on mobile is awkward, slow, and error-prone.
  • Proposed a simpler 2-step approach: pick an item first, then place it.
  • Implemented a basic version where a duplicate interactive list is created when picking an item.
  • The duplicate updates based on scroll position, and users can confirm or cancel changes.
  • This is a proof of concept, not a library, but source code is available for inspiration.
