Description
Is there an accepted recent solution to the problem of draggable elements not working on touch screens? I've tried the solutions mentioned in some older forums like this one from 2012, but they have not worked. (These include using .touch() and jquery-ui-duck-punch.)
I can pull example code, but it seems like a known issue and it's working as expected on a laptop! The larger (and very much in progress) project is here with the specific point using draggable here.
Thanks

Research direction
Start with the draggable usage in the linked loopBuilder file, scripts/Classes/EffectsUI.js at lines 54-66, and reproduce the behavior on an iPhone or touch device. Compare it with the laptop behavior and determine whether the jQuery UI website should document or address a supported touch-screen solution.
