[New Plugin] Dragger: Notion-style drag-and-drop for all blocks

Hi everyone!

I’m excited to share a plugin I’ve been working on: Dragger.

As much as I love Obsidian, I’ve always missed the fluid, block-based movement of Notion. While the existing Outliner plugin is great, I wanted something more powerful that supports dragging and dropping all types of text blocks, not just list items.

:sparkles: Key Features

  • Notion-style Drag & Drop: Move any paragraph, heading, or block with ease.

  • Beyond Outliner: Fully compatible with standard text, not limited to bullet points.

  • Intuitive UI: Designed to make rearranging your thoughts as fast as you think.

:construction: Current Status

The plugin is currently under active development. I’m working hard to refine the interaction and ensure it’s stable for daily use.

You can check out the progress and the code here: :backhand_index_pointing_right: GitHub: https://github.com/Ariestar/obsidian-dragger

:inbox_tray: Installation

Since the plugin is still in its early stages and hasn’t been submitted to the official Obsidian community store yet, you can install and test it via BRAT:

  1. Install the BRAT plugin from the community store.

  2. Go to Options > BRAT > Plugins > Add Beta plugin.

  3. Copy and paste the repository URL: https://github.com/Ariestar/obsidian-dragger

I’d love to hear your thoughts! What features from Notion’s drag-and-drop system do you miss the most in Obsidian? Feel free to leave a star or open an issue if you have suggestions.

Happy note-taking!
