Um, we totally use jquery-ui's drag and drop in a React component in production and nothing bad happens.

Ah, ok. Good to know. You just listen to the drop events and then update the state of react?

Yup, but it's not necessarily UI state that gets updated, just something that maps draggables to where they've been dropped.

yes, like updating the position in a sorted list you mean right. And did you also get it to work with touch events on mobile? I have an open question about that on SO http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27837500/drag-and-drop-wi...

Simply adding jquery-ui.touch-punch[0] monkey patched jquery-ui without us having to do anything else.
