Other Libraries<br />
There are other libraries available like SenchaTouch, jQueryMobile, jQTouch, etc., however these provide a<br />
UI with the library for mobile devices <strong>and</strong> are not recommended for cross platform interfaces such as<br />
desk<strong>to</strong>p <strong>to</strong> Mobile.<br />

Touch points Device Support t <strong>and</strong> Considerations<br />
In iOS you can capture 11 points of simultaneous contact with the device (The eleventh is a mystery <strong>to</strong><br />
everyone…)<br />
Other operating systems capture a lot less, although this is improving. Currently when designing for <strong>to</strong>uch<br />
interfaces I do not apply support for more than 2 simultaneous <strong>to</strong>uch interaction due <strong>to</strong> support across<br />
devices <strong>and</strong> the requirements. I have never come across a requirement for more than this, <strong>and</strong> limiting <strong>to</strong> 2<br />
<strong>to</strong>uches also allows me <strong>to</strong> also reuse my methods for Motion Events as I st<strong>and</strong>ardize using only 2 h<strong>and</strong>s <strong>to</strong><br />
interact with a screen.<br />
The main JavaScript Touch Events are:<br />
• Touchstart – fires once<br />
• Touchmove – fires continuously<br />
• Touchend – fires once<br />
