  1. The author of this library did not use react-native-gesture-handler. These are his imports:

    import React, { Component } from ‘react’
    import { PanResponder, Text, View, Dimensions, Animated } from ‘react-native’
    import PropTypes from ‘prop-types’
    import isEqual from ‘lodash/isEqual’
    import ViewOverflow from ‘react-native-view-overflow’

    1. Hello Andrew, yes you’re right, thank you for pointing this out. Sometimes I mistake PanResponder with react-native-gesture-handler, because the react-native-gesture-handler is now a go-to gesture handler while working with React Native and it was made to replace react-native PanResponder in the longer run.

  2. How do I make that if I click the one button to move left or right or to the top?
    And how do I make it that if I move a card down it will return to the default place?
    please help
