OT: Currently we are only utilising Sencha because of it's handling for native touch events on iPad/iPhone. You wouldn't happen to have come across this hurdled and cleared it in your journey, would you? That is a refactor I genuinely relish the chance to cook.

What do you mean with 'native touch events'? The touchmove events should give you all touches etc. also on iOS. FYI: This app comes with a gesture detector (source: https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/blob/master/shared/js/gesture_detector.js https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/blob/master/shared/js/ge...) as well that can handle swipes, pans, multi-finger transforms.

  Sorry, to clarify I want a solution so that we do not have to bake our own - Sencha abstracts it all away and handles everything the same across all devices (so I'm led to believe by the dev that chose and implemented it - I have very little experience with it). By 'native touch events' I mean very much like the link you've provided (which is a very promising resource, so thankyou for that), in that it offers a 'doubletap', 'swipe', and 'pinch' event for instance. (So more precisely _emulating_ native touch events?). I've found a good list of libraries in my research [1] but I was wondering if anyone had specific experience that could tip the balance in favour of one lib above Sencha (which to my eyes seems bloated and awkwardly constructed).

If you check out the next version of angular (currently 1.1.5) it includes an enhanced ngClick directive in a mobile module that handles click / touch directly to overcome the 300ms delay, etc. Initiate it with app.module('myapp', ['ngMobile'], .. )

  I'll give this one a look, thank you.
