Chapter 2. Building a Jigsaw Puzzle Game

Moving forward a bit more, in this chapter, we will see more (and slightly complex) use cases of draggable and droppable components. We will develop a jigsaw puzzle game where we will divide a picture into small pieces of the same size, and the user will have to rearrange these small pieces by dragging and dropping them to form a complete picture.

The UI will have two containers on the page. One container will be used to keep the puzzle pieces, and the other will act as a canvas for arranging these pieces. Initially, users will be displayed a picture along with a Start button. Once the Start button is clicked, the image will be divided into 16 pieces and these pieces will be placed in a separate container. Users will have to drag and drop the individual pieces on the canvas and arrange them to make the complete picture.
