VisualForce: Contact to Contact Drag-And-Drop Matchup App

I work at a non-profit camp for people with disabilities and during the camp season I have to match up campers with counselors 1 on 1. I have to constantly switch people around and can be very stressful. I'm looking for a way to build an app that allows me to have a vertical list of all the counselors in a coulmn and next to that have a list of all the campers with the ability to drag-and-drop the campers up and down to matchup with other counselors. Also if its posible to have the ability to have 2 campers matched up to 1 counselor, and finally if we can export the final product as a .CSV

Hi Antony,

This is a lot of work to visually show mapping and drag and drop.

You would need to start with Drag and Drop and upon completion, you can draw lines to show the connection and create the campers as child records for counsellors in the back end.

To start exploring,

The blow JS has a easy drag and drop implementation in Salesforce.

I'm sorry but I don't even know Where I would go to even start building this app. I am totally new to any of this.
