What gesture recognizers does MAUI provide?

Beginner

Answer

MAUI includes TapGestureRecognizer, PanGestureRecognizer (drag), PinchGestureRecognizer (zoom), SwipeGestureRecognizer (directional swipes), and DragGestureRecognizer/DropGestureRecognizer (drag-and-drop). Multiple recognizers can be attached to one view.
<Image.GestureRecognizers>
    <PinchGestureRecognizer PinchUpdated="OnPinch" />
    <PanGestureRecognizer PanUpdated="OnPan" />
</Image.GestureRecognizers>
Real-world example A photo viewer combines pinch-to-zoom and pan-to-move recognizers on the same image.
