How can I implement gestures in my React Native app?

You can use the Gesture Responder System in React Native to handle gestures like taps, swipes, and pinches.

Can you give me an example of a swipe gesture?

Sure! You can use the PanResponder API to detect swipe gestures. Here's a simple example:

import { PanResponder, View } from 'react-native';

const panResponder = PanResponder.create({
  onMoveShouldSetPanResponder: (evt, gestureState) => {
    return gestureState.dx !== 0 || gestureState.dy !== 0;
  },
  onPanResponderMove: (evt, gestureState) => {
    // Handle swipe movement here
  },
});

<View {...panResponder.panHandlers}>
  {/* Your content here */}
</View>

What about pinch gestures?

For pinch gestures, you can use the react-native-gesture-handler library. It provides a PinchGestureHandler component that makes it easy to handle pinch gestures.

Are there any libraries you recommend for advanced gesture handling?

Yes! I recommend using react-native-gesture-handler and react-native-reanimated for more complex gesture interactions.
