Luke Wroblewski, Chief Design Architect at Yahoo! Inc., has written a Touch Gesture Reference Guide (PDF here) for those getting started with programming and design using touch interfaces — both phones and tablets. Broken down by platform and gesture, the guide contains:

  • an overview of gestures used for most touch commands
  • how to utilize these gestures to support user actions
  • visual representations of each gesture for use in design documentation
  • an outline of how popular software platforms support core touch gestures
