useGestures has no tests: swipe gesture handling is uncovered

Labels / Complexity: testing · Trivial — Trivial

Summary

useGestures (src/hooks/useGestures.ts) handles touch/pointer gestures (e.g., swipes) for the mobile UI. It has no tests. A regression that breaks swipe thresholds or leaks listeners ships silently in the mobile experience.

Proposal

• Add a spec covering gesture start/move/end sequences (threshold crossing) and listener cleanup.

Acceptance criteria

• The spec asserts gesture recognition for the supported sequences; it passes via npm test.

Getting started

• src/hooks/useGestures.ts — the hook
• src/hooks/__tests__/useToast.test.ts — the pattern

Commands: npm test.

Good first files to read: src/hooks/useGestures.ts.

Hi! I'd like to work on this issue if it's available.
I have experience with React and TypeScript, and I'd be happy to add coverage for the useGestures hook, including swipe detection and listener cleanup, while following the existing testing patterns.
