Javascript Gesture Library

Question

I am looking for a good javascript library for gestures (e.g. swipe, tap, double-tap, pinch, etc.) for use in mobile browsers. The library should have cross-browser support and should be relatively lightweight.

I am currently using phone clearance with backbone.js and jquery. I looked in the jQuery mobile, Sencha touch and jGestures plugin, and did not find one that provides gestures and works on key mobile browsers. The closest thing is http://plugins.jquery.com/project/touchSwipe , which only works for webkit.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Answer 1

Take a look at the Alex Gibson insert, the touch and slider plugins located at:

They are all licensed by MIT and hopefully satisfy your needs.

Answer 2

You can check out Hammer.js on github. He has all the gesture you asked for.
