How to attach touch gestures to custom slider without plugins?

Question

JavaScript

I wrote a slider in native JS. But I ran into a problem with gestures on mobile devices. The solutions I found were based on the fact that it is necessary to turn off the standard behavior of the touchstart and touchmove events, and then write your own swipe to the X axis and, accordingly, scroll along the swipe in relation to the Y axis. Are there other solutions to this problem? Third-party libraries, please do not advise. My task is to understand the mechanics of gestures.
