Closes #330


Description

Implements touch event deduplication to prevent accidental double-submissions and unintended actions caused by multiple touch events firing for a single tap.

Problem Statement

  • Single tap sometimes triggers multiple events
  • Users unintentionally trigger double-submissions on forms
  • Accidental duplicate API calls consume bandwidth and resources

Solution

Provides two complementary APIs for touch event deduplication:

  1. useTouchDeduplication hook - For use within React components
  2. withTouchDeduplication wrapper - For use outside React hooks

Both track last tap time and coordinates, ignoring subsequent taps within a configured threshold at the same location.

Changes

  • ✅ Add useTouchDeduplication hook for React components with configurable threshold (default 300ms) and coordinate tolerance (default 10px)
  • ✅ Add withTouchDeduplication wrapper for use outside React hooks
  • ✅ Add comprehensive test suite covering duplicate prevention, async handlers, and form submissions
  • ✅ Add detailed specification and implementation guide documentation

Features

  • Tracks last tap time and coordinates to identify duplicates
  • Ignores duplicate taps within 300ms at same location
  • Prevents concurrent execution of async handlers
  • Optional onDuplicate callback for telemetry or analytics
  • Minimal memory and CPU overhead
  • Handles both synchronous and asynchronous handlers

Testing

  • All 14 tests pass

Acceptance Criteria

  • Implement touch event deduplication
  • Track last tap time and coordinates
  • Ignore duplicate taps within 300ms at same location
  • Test form submissions don't double-submit
  • Document touch event specification

Files Changed

  • src/hooks/useTouchDeduplication.ts - Core implementation
  • src/hooks/index.ts - Export hook
  • tests/hooks/useTouchDeduplication.test.ts - Comprehensive test suite
  • docs/TOUCH_EVENT_DEDUPLICATION.md - Detailed specification and usage guide
