Auto Snap & Align Nodes when Dragging #90

Closed ALPEEN closed 5 years ago

ALPEEN commented 6 years ago

UX Suggestion: Auto Snap & Align nodes when dragging would be a great enhancement to the UX.

Okay, now I'm looking for the best architectural solution for implementing such features in the form of plugins, so as not to complicate the exist codebase

ALPEEN commented 6 years ago

I see, it is good to keep in mind to keep everything as simple as possible, but with the growth of this awesome lib and its features, things will start getting complicated, too naturally. I think what it is healthy to do is to comment well the code bases: the role of each methods and parameters, the events and its triggers etc. I suggest too to use some libs that can reduce and organize the code such RxJS, I see that a node have all the properties of an observable so maybe we can take profits from reactive programming features etc.
