# SwiftUI Gestures

Comprehensive guide to SwiftUI gesture recognition with composition patterns, state management, and accessibility integration.

## When to Use This Skill

- Implementing tap, drag, long press, magnification, or rotation gestures
- Composing multiple gestures (simultaneously, sequenced, exclusively)
- Managing gesture state with GestureState
- Creating custom gesture recognizers
- Debugging gesture conflicts or unresponsive gestures
- Making gestures accessible with VoiceOver
- Cross-platform gesture handling (iOS, macOS, axiom-visionOS)

## Example Prompts

These are real questions developers ask that this skill is designed to answer:

#### 1. "My drag gesture isn't working - the view doesn't move when I drag it. How do I debug this?"
→ The skill covers DragGesture state management patterns and shows how to properly update view offset with @GestureState

#### 2. "I have both a tap gesture and a drag gesture on the same view. The tap works but the drag doesn't. How do I fix this?"
→ The skill demonstrates gesture composition with .simultaneously, .sequenced, and .exclusively to resolve gesture conflicts

#### 3. "I want users to long press before they can drag an item. How do I chain gestures together?"
→ The skill shows the .sequenced pattern for combining LongPressGesture with DragGesture in the correct order

#### 4. "My gesture state isn't resetting when the gesture ends. The view stays in the wrong position."
→ The skill covers @GestureState automatic reset behavior and the updating parameter for proper state management

#### 5. "VoiceOver users can't access features that require gestures. How do I make gestures accessible?"
→ The skill demonstrates .accessibilityAction patterns and providing alternative interactions for VoiceOver users

## Choosing the Right Gesture (Decision Tree)

What interaction do you need?

├─ Single tap/click?
│  └─ Use Button (preferred) or TapGesture
│
├─ Drag/pan movement?
│  └─ Use DragGesture
│
├─ Hold b
