## What it is
Swing is a JavaScript library for building swipeable card-stack interfaces with swipe-left/swipe-right yes/no input, as popularized by apps like Tinder and Jelly. It provides configurable card throwing, programmatic control, and event objects with throw confidence and direction data.

## Use cases
- build a Tinder-style swipeable card deck in a web app
- add swipe-left/swipe-right yes/no input to a mobile web UI
- create a card stack for one-handed navigation on touch devices
- programmatically throw cards out of a stack based on app logic
- build a decision-making or matching UI with draggable cards

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained library with active development and recent updates
- you are building with React or Vue and prefer framework-native swipe components
- you need RTL or accessibility-first card navigation

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: frontend, web-development, mobile-development
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: swipeable-cards, tinder-style-ui, touch-gestures, card-stack, drag-and-drop, nodejs
