iOS — Drag and Drop using CollectionView

Do You Know How to Implement Drag and Drop Using CollectionView in iOS?

In this blog post, we will implement Drag and Drop functionality with UICollectionView using swift.

Today, we’ll create a food order book, that shows a list of food items with the list of persons. Users can select food items and drop them off to the person paying for them.

I’ve tried to make this Drag and Drop functionality as easy as possible.
At the end of this blog post, we’ll have UI something like this.

We’ll divide implementation into 3 simple steps to make each step easy to understand.
Design Views to show food items and users
Implement drag delegate
Implement drop delegate
