## What it is
AlloyFinger is a super tiny JavaScript library for recognizing multi-touch gestures (tap, doubleTap, longTap, swipe, pinch, rotate, pressMove) on web elements. It provides a simple event-handler API and works with any framework, including an Omi integration.

## Use cases
- add pinch-to-zoom to a web image viewer
- detect swipe gestures on mobile web pages
- handle rotate gestures with two fingers
- implement double-tap and long-press interactions in the browser
- build touch-friendly mobile web apps without heavy frameworks
- recognize multi-touch gestures in vanilla JavaScript

## When to choose
- you need a tiny, dependency-free touch gesture library for the web
- you want simple event-based handling of common multi-touch gestures
- you target mobile browsers and need pinch, rotate, swipe, and tap support

## When to avoid
- you need native mobile app gesture handling (iOS/Android SDKs)
- your project requires actively maintained libraries with recent releases
- you need pointer/mouse gesture support beyond touch events

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: web-development, frontend, mobile-development
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: touch-gestures, multi-touch, pinch-zoom, swipe, tap-events, mobile-web, tiny-library, javascript
