Update: as planned, I’ve created a helper library that makes the gesture events from Hammer.js easy to use with Elm.

[https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/leforestier/elm-hammer-events/latest/](https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/leforestier/elm-hammer-events/latest/)

Hammer.js is actually doing all the work of gesture detection, and it’s pretty good at it. Now you can use events attributes such as `onSwipe`, `onSwipeLeft`, `onPress`, `onRotate` etc… in your Elm application and it’s as easy as using onClick.
