Nestable, sortable and dragable categories:

In the project I'm working on we wanted to have a Category model which we wanted to be nestable. But we also liked the user to have a draggable interface to manage and rearrange the order of his categories. So we chose awesome_nested_set for the model and jQuery.nestedSortable for the UI.

It took me some time to arrange things to work properly so I wanted to share my work in case it helps anybody.

Before beginning

you might want to take a look at a demo app

1. go to: http://awesomenestedsortable.heroku.com/groups/1
2. click in manage categories

GitHub Javascript Strategy

Unless otherwise necessary (such as mobile development), the GitHub javascript codebase is based off jQuery. You can safely assume it will be included on every page.

File naming

• All jquery plugins should be prefixed with jquery, such as jquery.facebox
• All github-specific jquery plugins should be prefixed with jquery.github. Like jquery.github.repo_list.js
• All page-specific files (that only run on ONE page) should be prefixed with page. page.billing.js
