React-beautiful-dnd: I need examples with code~

[fishenal]

so hard for me, where to see the code of the demos? storybook

Agreed, even the simplest attempt to use this library is exploding with hundreds of errors in console for a single list with 7 unique elements modified from example code...... and the massive complexity of even the most basic implementation renders this lib almost unusable...right?

yes, it's wired that so many examples(in storybook) without codes, it's very good at examples amount, but very bad at show codes. I don't think other lib like this, or I did'nt go to the right page?

I agree, the storybook method used here is nice for presentation but not good for learning. The story code is in https://github.com/atlassian/react-beautiful-dnd/tree/master/stories/src, but you'll have to jump around a lot between modules to understand it all.

I found it easier to learn from the walkthrough with videos (code in descriptions) on egghead: https://egghead.io/courses/beautiful-and-accessible-drag-and-drop-with-react-beautiful-dnd

Finally, this youtuber did a pretty good video walkthrough series as well (he has github code links in video description): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLN3n1USn4xlnsj993By8YSvsEl1VWhV8R

Totally agree. The examples would be so much more useful with code!

Yeah, why not list out an example and spec the API in the readme.md ? Would be better than videos. Need to take a glance at the API before investing time.
