I Built a React Native Scheduling Timeline Library — and Now It Supports Drag & Drop, Resize & Smart Overlaps A while ago, I shared that I built a time-based scheduling timeline library for React Native . It was designed to handle complex layouts like planners, booking systems, and EPG-style interfaces. Today, I’m excited to share a major update: The library now supports Drag & Drop, Resize interactions, and intelligent overlap stacking . This transforms it from a static timeline component into a fully interactive, production-ready scheduling tool. Why I Built It If you’ve ever tried building a scheduling UI in React Native, you probably know how tricky it gets. Some of the challenges include: Precisely positioning events based on time Handling horizontal and vertical scrolling simultaneously Virtualizing large datasets for performance Synchronizing headers and content Supporting TV platforms and remote navigation Keeping performance smooth on tablets and lower-end devices There wasn’t
