Developing for touch
summary
Slides and live examples demonstrate actionable details: the universal 300ms delay and when to stick with click; Apple-style touch events expose changedTouches arrays useful for multitouch while Microsoft pointer events give only single clientX/Y and require verbose setup plus -ms-touch-action: none CSS to make JS capture gestures. Demos include drag‑and‑drop, pointer vs touch move differences, a gesture implementation that mostly works but whose contentzoom is unreliable and requires fiddly workarounds.
