• Relesed v1.0.0 of my pet javasscript project yesterday after hitting 100% coverage- a gesture detection library
  3 projects | /r/javascript | 6 Feb 2022

  Hey all! Back in university I needed to incorporate a gesture library into my honours project, in order to support multi-device gestures (e.g. a "pinch" where one input is coming from one phone, and the other is coming from a tablet adjacent to it). I wound up forking zingtouch since it had an approachable architecture, then took it in my own direction as the project rapidly evolved- it's now quite a different library under the hood. I don't currently work in javascript so the library sat around waiting for a v1.0.0 release for ages without being touched, while I focused on other things. I've occasionally been chipping away at it though, and challenged myself to hit full 100% test coverage before releasing v1.0.0, which I finally did yesterday! (And a good thing too- I found a fair amount of bugs and silly decisions on my part along the way). So, v1.0.0 is out on npm, and I just wanted to share my excitement at finally crossing that threshold. The name is a mash-up of "wams" and "gestures". "Wams" was the name of my honours project.
