You can try to run the following code to learn how to implement ondragend event in JavaScript.

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
   <head>
      <style>
         .drag {
            float: left;
            width: 100px;
            height: 35px;
            border: 2px dashed #876587;
            margin: 15px;
            padding: 10px;
         }
      </style>
   </head>

   <body>
      <div class="drag" ondrop = "drop(event)" ondragover = "dropNow(event)">
         <p ondragstart = "dragStart(event)" ondragend = "dragEnd(event)" draggable = "true" id = "dragtarget">Drag!</p>
     </div>

     <div class = "drag" ondrop = "drop(event)" ondragover = "dropNow(event)"></div>
     <div id = "box"></div>
     <p>Drag the left box to the right or drag the right box to the left.</p>
     <script>
        function dragStart(event) {
           event.dataTransfer.setData("Text", event.target.id);
        }
        function dropNow(event) {
           event.preventDefault();
        }
        function dragEnd(event) {
           document.getElementById("box").innerHTML = "Dragging ends!";
        }
        function drop(event) {
           event.preventDefault();
           var data = event.dataTransfer.getData("Text");
           event.target.appendChild(document.getElementById(data));
           document.getElementById("box").innerHTML = "The element dropped successfully!";
        }
      </script>
   </body>
</html>
