}

How to use

• Create a reorderable state by rememberReorderableLazyListState for LazyList or rememberReorderableLazyGridState for LazyGrid
• Add the reorderable(state) modifier to your list/grid
• Inside the list/grid itemscope create a ReorderableItem(state, key = ) for a keyed lists or ReorderableItem(state, index = ) for a indexed only list. (Animated items only work with keyed lists)
• Apply the detectReorderAfterLongPress(state) or detectReorder(state) modifier to the list. If only a drag handle is needed apply the detect modifier to any child composable inside the item layout.

ReorderableItem provides the item dragging state, use this to apply elevation , scale etc.

@Composable
fun VerticalReorderList() {
    val data = remember { mutableStateOf(List(100) { "Item $it" }) }
    val state = rememberReorderableLazyListState(onMove = { from, to ->
        data.value = data.value.toMutableList().apply {
            add(to.index, removeAt(from.index))
        }
    })
    LazyColumn(
        state = state.listState,
        modifier = Modifier
        .reorderable(state)
        .detectReorderAfterLongPress(state)
    ) {
        items(data.value, { it }) { item ->
            ReorderableItem(state, key = item) { isDragging ->
                val elevation = animateDpAsState(if (isDragging) 16.dp else 0.dp)
                Column(
                    modifier = Modifier
                        .shadow(elevation.value)
                        .background(MaterialTheme.colors.surface)
                ) {
                    Text(item)
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

The item placement and drag cancelled animation can be changed or disabled by dragCancelledAnimation and defaultDraggingModifier

@Composable
fun VerticalReorderGrid() {
    val data = remember { mutableStateOf(List(100) { "Item $it" }) }
    val state = rememberReorderableLazyGridState(dragCancelledAnimation = NoDragCancelledAnimation(),
        onMove = { from, to ->
            data.value = data.value.toMutableList().apply {
                add(to.index, removeAt(from.index))
            }
        })
    LazyVerticalGrid(
        columns = GridCells.Fixed(4),
        state = state.gridState,
        modifier = Modifier.reorderable(state)
    ) {
        items(data.value, { it }) { item ->
            ReorderableItem(state, key = item, defaultDraggingModifier = Modifier) { isDragging ->
                Box(
                    modifier = Modifier
                        .aspectRatio(1f)
                        .background(MaterialTheme.colors.surface)
                ) {
                    Text(text = item,
                         modifier = Modifier.detectReorderAfterLongPress(state)
                    )
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Notes

It's a known issue that the first visible item does not animate.
