Overview
iOS keyboards use many gestures. For instance, keys can be pressed, released and dragged, space can be long pressed to move the cursor, shift can be double tapped to toggle caps-lock, etc.
KeyboardKit provides you with handy gesture views and extensions that makes it easy to handle most gestures with a KeyboardActionHandler.
Core Features
KeyboardKit has a Gestures namespace with gesture-related types. For instance, a GestureButton, a KeyboardGesture enum that defines various gestures like .press, .release, .doubleTap, etc.
The gestures are used to trigger KeyboardAction events within the library, and automatically applied by views like the SystemKeyboard.
