ZingTouch is a dependency-free JavaScript library for detecting touch gestures in the browser. It ships six customizable standard gestures (tap, swipe, pan, pinch/expand, distance, rotate) and lifecycle hooks for building custom gestures.
Use cases
- detect tap and swipe gestures on mobile web pages
- implement pinch-to-zoom in a web app
- add rotate gestures to an image viewer
- create custom touch gestures with lifecycle hooks
- handle touch events consistently across browsers
When to choose
- you need lightweight, dependency-free touch gesture handling in vanilla JavaScript
- you want customizable or custom-defined gestures
- you're building touch-first web interfaces without a large framework
When to avoid
- your framework already provides built-in gesture handling
- you need mouse/pointer unified event handling rather than touch
- you need a maintained library with frequent updates
