Is drag & drop an HTML5 feature?

I could be wrong, but I got the impression that the Drag & Drop feature is something associated with HTML5. Is it so?

I took this drag and drop code as an example, but I'm not sure I could find anything HTML5-ish about it.

There is no real exact answer for this. HTML5 is not the same thing as HTML - in that HTML is a simple tag based scripting tool. HTML5 is too. But it offers much more. But it still is not a language exactly.

HTML5 on it's own cannot implement animations. For that JavaScript and CSS still must be used, at the very least. But you will often hear someone say "this was done in HTML5." All that really means is that they combined a bunch of stuff together to acheive the desired effect. It's never just the one language on its own.

Even the link you specified there very clearly says that it is using an external API to acheive the drag and drop effect.
