• Starting to learn about use-gesture. Great little tutorial on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBWhAGhw7wM

• use-gesture tries to make it easy to add new gesture primatives such onClick and extend to lots more gestures like onDrag and onPinch so we can create much more native like experiences.

• It works well with react with some out the box hooks. The boilerplate code is quite simple

function MyComponent(){

	const myDomRef = useRef()

	useGesture({
		onDrag: doSomething(event)
		domTarget: myDomRef
	})


	return <div ref={myDomRef}> hey </div>
}

• the library does not do the work to move and transform dom elements, just provides the utilities to do so via the events exposed on the callbacks.
• Within those callback it’s recommended to use an animation lib like Framer or React spring to create interesting touch feedback.
