How can I implement custom gestures in React Native using gesture-handler?

You can implement custom gestures in React Native using the 'react-native-gesture-handler' library by defining gesture handlers like PanGestureHandler or TapGestureHandler. Would you like a code example?

Yes, please provide a code example for a custom pan gesture.

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import React from 'react';
import { View, StyleSheet } from 'react-native';
import { PanGestureHandler } from 'react-native-gesture-handler';

const App = () => {
  const onGestureEvent = (event) => {
    console.log(event.nativeEvent.translationX, event.nativeEvent.translationY);
  };

  return (
    <PanGestureHandler onGestureEvent={onGestureEvent}>
      <View style={styles.box} />
    </PanGestureHandler>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  box: {
    width: 100,
    height: 100,
    backgroundColor: 'blue',
  },
});

This will log the translation of the gesture.

What if I want to combine multiple gestures?

You can use the GestureDetector component to combine multiple gestures. For example, you can wrap a PanGestureHandler and a TapGestureHandler together. Would you like to see an example of that?
