I will test out hammer.js and report back! Without testing, the differences are: * hammer.js support *way* more events * hammer.js is 10 times the size of pointer.js (minified to minified)
I'll evaluate performance on B2G, but pointer.js was built with B2G perf in mind. Thanks for pointing that lib out! ~potch On Fri, May 24, 2013 at 2:14 PM, David Ascher <[email protected]> wrote: > Cool.
