A Django "widget" that progressively enhances the default m2m multi-select widget using jQuery and jQuery UI.
=================== Django M2M Selector
A bit of Javascript and CSS to progressively enhance Django's default many-to-many form widget.
This uses jQuery and jQuery UI to hide the default multi-select box and adds a drag-and-drop interface for selecting items. The drag-and-drop events update the multi-select input element behind the scenes so no change is needed to your Django view code.
Screenshots
With Javascript disabled, you see the default Django form::

Future Plans
- A filter while typing box, similar to github's repo box.
- Add multi-select support and arrows to move from one box to another.
- Double click events that move the item to the other box.
