It's possible to drag and drop literally anything inside grapesjs canvas

You can take control over what is dropped inside the canvas via canvas:dragdata event https://jsfiddle.net/artur_arseniev/87rcb24n/

Thanks for reporting this, @Frubl.

Great question about It's possible to drag and drop literally anything inside grapesjs 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
