+# useDoubleClick Hook
+
+A custom React hook for handling double-click and double-tap events reliably across all platforms, with special optimizations for iOS devices.
+
+## Problem Statement
+
+iOS devices have historically had issues with double-click detection due to:
+- The 300ms click delay on older iOS versions
+- Conflicts between touch and mouse events
+- Unreliable native double-click detection
+- Ghost clicks (duplicate events after touch events)
+
+## Solution
+
+The `useDoubleClick` hook provides a robust solution that:
+- Uses native touch events for better iOS responsiveness
+- Prevents ghost clicks through intelligent timing detection
+- Handles both single and double-click scenarios
+- Works consistently across iOS, Android, and Desktop platforms
+
+## Installation
+
+The hook is located at `src/hooks/use-double-click.ts` and can be imported directly:
+
+```typescript
+import { useDoubleClick } from '@/hooks/use-double-click';
+```
+
+## API Reference
+
+### Options
+
+```typescript
+interface UseDoubleClickOptions {
+  onSingleClick?: (event: MouseEvent | TouchEvent) => void;
+  onDoubleClick: (event: MouseEvent | TouchEvent) => void;
+  delay?: number; // Default: 300ms
+  doubleClickOnly?: boolean; // Default: false
+}
+```
+
+### Return Value
+
+```typescript
+interface UseDoubleClickReturn {
+  onClick: (event: MouseEvent) => void;
+  onTouchEnd: (event: TouchEvent) => void;
+}
+```
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Example 1: Standard Behavior (Single + Double Click)
+
+```tsx
+import { useDoubleClick } from '@/hooks/use-double-click';
+
+function MyComponent() {
+  const handlers = useDoubleClick({
+    onSingleClick: () => {
+      console.log('Single click detected');
+    },
+    onDoubleClick: () => {
+      console.log('Double click detected');
+    },
+  });
+
+  return (
+    <div {...handlers}>
+      Click me once or twice!
+    </div>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+### Example 2: Double-Click Only
+
+```tsx
+import { useDoubleClick } from '@/hooks/use-double-click';
+
+function MyComponent() {
+  const handlers = useDoubleClick({
+    onDoubleClick: () => {
+      console.log('Double click detected');
+    },
+    doubleClickOnly: true, // Ignore single clicks
+  });
+
+  return (
+    <div {...handlers}>
+      Double-click me!
+    </div>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+### Example 3: Custom Delay
+
+```tsx
+import { useDoubleClick } from '@/hooks/use-double-click';
+
+function MyComponent() {
+  const handlers = useDoubleClick({
+    onSingleClick: () => {
+      console.log('Single click');
+    },
+    onDoubleClick: () => {
+      console.log('Double click');
+    },
+    delay: 500, // 500ms window for double-click detection
+  });
+
+  return (
+    <button {...handlers}>
+      Click with custom timing
+    </button>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+## iOS-Specific Optimizations
+
+### 1. Touch Event Handling
+
+The hook uses native `touchend` events for better responsiveness on iOS:
+
+```typescript
+onTouchEnd: (event: TouchEvent) => {
+  event.preventDefault(); // Prevent ghost clicks
+  handleClick(event);
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Ghost Click Prevention
+
+iOS can fire both touch and click events for the same user interaction. The hook prevents this:
+
+```typescript
+if (event.type === 'click') {
+  const now = Date.now();
+  if (now - lastTouchTimeRef.current < 500) {
+    event.preventDefault();
+    return; // Ignore ghost click
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Timing Accuracy
+
+Uses `Date.now()` for precise timing measurements instead of relying on event timestamps:
+
+```typescript
+lastTouchTimeRef.current = Date.now();
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+Comprehensive tests are available in `tests/use-double-click.test.ts` covering:
+
+- ✅ Double-click detection
+- ✅ Single-click detection with delay
+- ✅ Double-click only mode
+- ✅ Custom delay timing
+- ✅ iOS touch events
+- ✅ Ghost click prevention
+- ✅ Multiple sequential double-clicks
+- ✅ Edge cases (3+ rapid clicks)
+
+Run tests with:
+
+```bash
+pnpm vitest --run tests/use-double-click.test.ts
+```
+
+## Demo
+
+A complete interactive demo is available at:
+- **Component**: `src/components/examples/DoubleClickDemo.tsx`
+- **Route**: Create a route that renders `<DoubleClickDemo />` to see it in action
+
+The demo showcases:
+- Standard single + double click behavior
+- Double-click only mode
+- Click counters
+- Visual feedback
+- iOS-specific optimizations explanation
+
+## Browser Compatibility
+
+| Platform | Supported | Notes |
+|----------|-----------|-------|
+| iOS 12+ | ✅ | Fully tested with touch events |
+| iOS 18+ | ✅ | All features working |
+| Android | ✅ | Touch events supported |
+| Desktop | ✅ | Standard mouse events |
+| Safari | ✅ | Optimized for iOS Safari |
+| Chrome | ✅ | All platforms |
+| Firefox | ✅ | All platforms |
+
+## Technical Details
+
+### Type Safety
+
+The hook uses correct browser types:
+- `number` for `setTimeout` return value (not `NodeJS.Timeout`)
+- `window.setTimeout` explicitly used for browser environment
+- Proper TypeScript event types (`MouseEvent`, `TouchEvent`)
+
+### Memory Management
+
+- Clears timers properly to prevent memory leaks
+- Resets state after each interaction
+- No memory retained between hook re-renders
+
+### Performance
+
+- Minimal re-renders using `useCallback` and `useRef`
+- No state updates for internal timing logic
+- Efficient event handling
+
+## Migration from Native Events
+
+If you're currently using native double-click:
+
+```tsx
+// Before (unreliable on iOS)
+<div onDoubleClick={handleDoubleClick}>
+  Click me
+</div>
+
+// After (reliable on all platforms)
+import { useDoubleClick } from '@/hooks/use-double-click';
+
+const handlers = useDoubleClick({
+  onDoubleClick: handleDoubleClick,
+});
+
+<div {...handlers}>
+  Click me
+</div>
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Issue: Single clicks are detected as double-clicks
+
+**Solution**: Increase the `delay` option:
+
+```tsx
+const handlers = useDoubleClick({
+  onDoubleClick: handleDoubleClick,
+  delay: 400, // Increase from default 300ms
+});
+```
+
+### Issue: Double-clicks are too slow
+
+**Solution**: Decrease the `delay` option:
+
+```tsx
+const handlers = useDoubleClick({
+  onDoubleClick: handleDoubleClick,
+  delay: 200, // Decrease from default 300ms
+});
+```
+
+### Issue: Touch events not working on desktop
+
+**Solution**: This is expected behavior. Desktop uses mouse events. The hook automatically handles both.
+
+## Contributing
+
+When modifying this hook:

+2. Test on actual iOS devices (iOS 12+)
+3. Verify no regressions on Android and Desktop
+4. Update documentation if API changes
