Performance issue while dragging component to canvas when you have 2k component on canvas

With the latest release, containing the refactor of the Sorter by @mohamedsalem401, the previous demo seems to be working fine now 🥳

I have the same problem, and I don't think it is due to the size, I am using the pageManager and I preload an html template and trying to drag new elements to the canvas it happens that the canvas only inserts the component after 10 seconds, it even freezes momentarily

Thanks for reporting this, @mohdSuhailCoditation.

Great question about Performance issue while dragging component to canvas when you have 2k component on canvas. The recommended approach with Canvas is to use the event-driven API.

Start here:

1. Check the GrapesJS documentation for your specific module
2. Look for the on() event listener method
3. Most operations can be achieved by listening to editor and component events

Common patterns:

// Listen for changes
editor.on('change', () => console.log('something changed'));

// Component lifecycle
editor.on('component:mount', (c) => console.log('component ready', c));
editor.on('component:update', (c) => console.log('component updated', c));

If you're still stuck:

• Share a minimal CodeSandbox reproduction
• Include what you've already tried
• Mention your GrapesJS version
