Types of applications you can write with Web API The Basics page has references to good sources of information on the HTML5 Pointer Events programming model with example code. Although touch handling does not have the range of properties of the other devices, it can make use of some of that same logic as well. The very convenient thing about HTML5 Pointer Events support is that the user can employ either a tablet pen or the system mouse, and the app can almost completely handle either input device with the same app logic.

The concept of an HTML5 Pointer Events pointer is a hardware agnostic representation of input devices that can target a specific coordinate (or set of coordinates) on a screen. Using HTML5 Pointer Events, a javascript program can be written to detect and process input from any of these sources that will run on most major browsers. The HTML5 Pointer Events specification combines touch, mouse, pen, and other inputs into a single unified API. The HTML5 Pointer events API is an open, industry-wide protocol that is defined by the World Wide Web Consortium: In this document "web API" refers to the HTML5 Pointer Events framework that can be used to incorporate tablet ink and touch data for the purpose of writing applications that run on browsers. This document is intended to support web app developers who would like to add Wacom tablet-aware capabilities to their browser applications so as to support the acquisition and display of tablet pen and touch data.
