React Native Gestures is a composable gesture library for React Native that enables developers to handle complex touch interactions like drag, pinch, and custom gestures. It solves the problem of building gesture-driven UIs by providing a flexible API to combine and map gestures to style updates. The library focuses on simplicity and reusability, allowing for seamless integration of multiple gestures in a single component.
React Native developers building interactive mobile applications that require advanced touch gestures, such as drag-and-drop interfaces, zoomable views, or custom gesture-based controls.
Developers choose React Native Gestures for its composable architecture, which allows easy combination of gestures like drag and pinch without complex boilerplate. Its unique selling point is the GestureView component and the ability to map gesture calculations directly to style properties, offering greater control and flexibility compared to built-in gesture handlers.
