Thankfully, AngularJS comes with a nice module called ngTouch, which allows us to easily add touch and swipe gestures. The ngTouch file doesn't come as a default with AngularJS and needs to be included separately.

Download the ngTouch file using bower by typing the following command in the terminal:

bower install angular-touch --save

We'll include ngTouch by adding the following script file in our app/index.html file, as highlighted in the following code:

<script src="bower_components/angular-touch/angular-touch.js"></script>

Make sure that ngTouch is called after AngularJS.

The next step is to add it as a dependency for our app.

We will add it in our angular.module function in our app/js/app.js file, as highlighted in the following code:

angular.module('myApp', [
  'ngRoute',
  'myApp.filters',
  'myApp.services...
