Sortable image gallery grid with frame

For AI Agents

Hand your agent this brief or the ReUI MCP, not a screenshot. Free to install.

Best for: Tiles for image files labeled with name, pixel dimensions and size, set in a titled Frame panel

When to use

Ranked lists such as a play queue, notification channels or release tasks, put in order by a grip
Tile grids such as a media library, where cards change places across rows and columns
Grouped options and menus reordered in place, such as product variants or sidebar menu entries

When not to use

Photos the user picks from disk and orders before they are sent to storage: use the File Upload component
Cards that move between several status columns on one board: use the Kanban component
Ranked table rows that keep several columns of values lined up: use the Drag & Drop blocks
A whole page layout of sidebar, top bar and content area around the list: use the App Shell blocks

Agent notes

defaultImages holds no image URL, so each tile draws a placeholder icon; add a source field and render your thumbnail
Drag listeners sit on SortableItemHandle only, so a SortableItem rendered without one cannot be dragged
Passing onMove skips the built-in reorder, so neither onValueChange nor onValueCommit fires on drop
The drag preview clones the child of Sortable whose value matches the dragged item, so a wrapper around SortableItem needs that value too
