https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/drag-and-drop-items-mh35852/mac
https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/DragandDrop/DragandDrop.html
So does Microsoft:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/com/drag-and-drop
Qt and KDE use "drag and drop":
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/dnd.html
https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/applications/konsole/drag-and-drop.html
GTK+ and GNOME uses "drag-and-drop"
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk-tutorial/stable/c1899.html
Wikipedia uses "drag and drop" and "drag-and-drop"
