jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. The jqxDragDrop is used to represent a jQuery drag and drop widget that is used to make any DOM element draggable. It can be used in combination with many widgets like jqxTree, jqxGrid, jqxListBox and etc.

The dragStart event is triggered when the item is dragged for the first time.

Syntax:

$('#jqxDragDrop').on('dragStart', function () { 
     // Code here. 
});
