In this Bolt.new tutorial you'll learn how to add smooth swipe gestures to your app on touchscreen devices, using the Bolt agent in plan mode to research and recommend the best library for the job. This means you don't have to build animations from scratch or guess which open source library to use. You'll see how a single prompt can turn into a full implementation plan, with the agent comparing options like Framer Motion, React Spring, and Hammer.js, then installing the recommended one and wiring it up to a clean travel card UI. The result is an app where you can swipe a card left or right to save or dismiss a destination, and have that choice saved to your database. If you've ever wanted to add polished, app-like interactions to your Bolt project without diving deep into code, this walkthrough shows you a practical, repeatable workflow you can apply to any animation or gesture you want to build next. *Timestamps:* 00:00 Introduction 00:13 Leveraging Open Source Libraries 00:45 Researching with Bolt Agent 01:22 Implementation and Testing 02:17 Technical Code Overview 02:29 Mobile Device Testing 03:23 Summary and Conclusion *About Bolt:* Bolt turns ideas into production software in minutes, entirely in your browser.
