Teaching the Sighted to Touch & Feel a Bit More
summary
Build claim: a working React Native six-key-input NPM package that powers a UEB Prep app and demos in Expo. Tools and surprises: uses gesture responder system instead of web touch events, copes with the five-finger phone limit via lift-and-press workaround, picks Apple Braille font for cross-platform ghost dots, and relies on responsive styles plus testing on iOS and Android. Repository, bundle and Expo example exist and the input actually registers multi-touch Braille characters.
