About this skill

Pulsar Haptics

Pulsar is a cross-platform haptic feedback SDK with 150+ named presets, custom pattern composition, real-time gesture-driven haptics, and audio simulation for simulator/emulator testing. Available for iOS (Swift), Android (Kotlin), and React Native (TypeScript).

How to Use This Skill

  1. Identify the platform from the user's code (file extensions, imports, framework).

    • TypeScript / React Native / Expo → read React Native
    • Swift / SwiftUI / UIKit → read iOS
    • Kotlin / Android → read Android
    • If unclear, ask: "Are you working in React Native, iOS Swift, or Android Kotlin?"

  2. Load the platform SKILL.md — it lists which reference files to read for the task.

  1. Use the right reference for the task:

    • presets-guide — choosing which preset to use
    • api-overview — implementation help (installation, API calls, composer usage)
    • design-principles — best practices, accessibility, when to use or avoid haptics
    • gesture-haptics — real-time haptics driven by drag, swipe, or pan gestures using RealtimeComposer
    • migration (React Native only) — replacing expo-haptics with Pulsar

  2. Always prefer presets over custom patterns. First consult presets-guide — Pulsar ships 150+ named presets covering most interactions. Only reach for PatternComposer / RealtimeComposer (via design-principles and api-overview) when no preset fits the interaction well.

Reference Files

  • migration (references/react-native/migration.md) — Full expo-haptics → Pulsar mapping table, before/after code examples, and an explanation of what Pulsar adds beyond expo-haptics.

  • design-principles (references/common/design-principles.md) — Shared across all platforms. Design rules, emotion-to-preset mapping table, accessibility guidance, iOS hardware notes (Taptic Engine by device generation, iPad/Mac Catalyst), and Android limitations (hardware fragmentation, API-level requirements, CompatibilityMode, RealtimeComposerStrategy).

  • gesture-haptics (references/common/gesture-haptics.md) — Shared across all platforms. Real-time gesture-driven haptics with RealtimeComposer: parameter mapping, phase tables, and patterns for drag-and-drop, snap points, pull-to-refresh, and swipe-to-delete.

  • presets-guide (references/common/presets-guide.md) — Preset selection workflow, clarifying questions, tag selection guide, and the full 150+ preset reference with descriptions and tags.

  • api-overview (references/<ios|android|react-native>/api-overview.md) — Per-platform. Full API reference: installation, presets, system presets with platform mapping, PatternComposer, RealtimeComposer, caching/preloading, the configuration API, and HapticSupport/CompatibilityMode for graceful degradation.

Platform Skills

  • React Native — Use when the project is React Native or Expo (TypeScript/JavaScript).

  • iOS — Use when the project is native iOS (Swift/Objective-C).

  • Android — Use when the project is native Android (Kotlin/Java).
