  }

  onSwipeLeft(event) {
    console.log('Swiped left!');
  }

  onSwipeRight(event) {
    console.log('Swiped right!');
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <Swipe
        onSwipeMove={this.onSwipeMove}
        onSwipeLeft={this.onSwipeLeft}
        onSwipeRight={this.onSwipeRight}
      >
        <div style={{ width: '100%', height: '100px', background: 'lightgray' }}>
