Hi Lars,

Thanks for your question!

In the article I only described the feature on a very high-level and it is significantly more complex.

So the overall benefits of re-implementing were big:

- Initial implementation didn't use any form framework for help (e.g. react-hook-form)

- Initial implementation relied on an old drag & drop library

- I was the only person who understood the initial implementation, because I spend a lot of time debugging errors there. The new one is easier to understand for folks who are new to the codebase.
