Customize gestures

All gestures can be customized by passing options to them. **Note that you'll have to import from the ./events folder in this case.

Example

import swipe from '@ls-age/svelte-touch/events/swipe';

// This handler requires a finger to move at least 50 pixels to the left to detect a swipe gesture
const customSwipe = swipe({
  threshold: 50,
});

// Use `customSwipe` just like `swipe` was used in the above examples
