How to use react native text input? Handling text input in React Native can be a tricky task, especially for beginners. However, with a little bit of knowledge and practice, it becomes a breeze. In this blog, we will cover everything from basic to advanced techniques for handling text input in React Native. First, let's start with the basics. In React Native, the most commonly used component for handling text input is the  TextInput  component. This component allows the user to enter and edit text. It has a wide range of props that can be used to customize its behavior and appearance. Some of the most commonly used props include: value : The current value of the text input. onChangeText : A function that is called when the text input's value changes. placeholder : The text to be displayed when the input is empty. secureTextEntry : A boolean value that determines whether the text input should hide the entered text (e.g. for passwords). Here's an example of a basic text input...

Understanding State and Props in React Native Functional Components React Native, the popular framework for building mobile applications, allows developers to build both functional and class-based components. In this blog, we will be discussing the concepts of state and props in functional components. States in React Native refers to the data or variables that determine a component's behavior and render dynamic content. It is an object that holds the current values of a component and can be updated by the component itself. The state is managed by the component and can be accessed and updated using the  useState  hook. const [name, setName] = useState("test user") In the example above, we are using the  useState  hook to create a state variable called  name  with an initial value of "test user". The hook returns an array with two elements - the current state value and a function to update the state value. In this case, we are destructuring the array to two v...
