## What it is
A WinUI 3 Windows application that emulates macOS-style three-finger dragging on Windows Precision touchpads by holding down the left mouse button during the gesture. It runs in the system tray and offers a configuration pane for tuning the drag behavior.

## Use cases
- enable mac-style three finger drag on windows touchpad
- drag windows without holding mouse button
- select text with three finger gesture
- emulate click-and-drag on precision touchpad
- replace tap twice and drag behavior on windows

## When to choose
- you have a Windows Precision touchpad and miss macOS three-finger dragging
- you want a free, open-source utility available on the Microsoft Store
- you need configurable drag behavior via a tray icon

## When to avoid
- you are on macOS or Linux
- your touchpad is not a Windows Precision touchpad
- you rely on default Windows three-finger swipe gestures
