Anybody done anything like this with gsap?

What touch libraries do you recommend?

Sorry, I haven't created anything like this with JS.

Our ThrowPropsPlugin will be available sometime soon which would help quite a bit.

 

Also, its important to note that Lee isn't creating a tween. He is running a loop that is constantly capturing the velocity of the drag. When the drag stops his loop is just diminishing that velocity each frame with vx *= 0.95;

 

 

With ThrowProps, you will be able to create a tween that will have a predetermined duration and end values. This tween can be paused, restarted, reversed, inserted into a sequence (timeline) and have callbacks applied among other things.

 

You can read more about ThrowPropsPlugin here: http://www.greensock.com/throwprops/

 

Stay tuned (facebook / twitter) for more info on the release of this plugin for Javascript.

 

As for touch libraries, sorry I really don't know enough about them to recommend one.
