Data Binding

Sortable enables you to bind it to an array of strings or objects by setting the data property of the <kendo-sortable> tag.

Sorting items using either drag-and-drop operations or the keyboard navigation will emit events, such as dragStart, dragOver, dragEnd and others. The events provide the information neccessary for manipulating the dataset manually or through the Sortable's API.

Data Binding Directive

The Sortable provides the built-in SortableBindingDirective directive, which simplifies the handling of data operations by cutting down the repetitive boilerplate code.

The SortableBindingDirective will seamlessly keep the Sortable items and the data array passed to it in sync. The following example demonstrates how to set up the binding.
