Include Touch event detection? #14

Open Taylord93 opened 8 years ago

Taylord93 commented 8 years ago

Should we include angular-touch in the boilerplate? I feel like it would be a relatively unobtrusive thing to include but could really help for mobile interactions, and if its already there we will be much more likely to seize opportunities where we could use multi-touch gestures on mobile.

I wanted to add that while I do like that libraries such as hammer.js include detection for other actions like pinch and pan, those are far less frequent and will likely only be used once in a blue moon. Swipes, however, are becoming a standard part of usability. I believe that it is important for us to include some of that functionality.

Well, just realized that ng-touch is actually deprecated so lets move this discussion to focus on including a lib like hammer and creating custom directives for it.
