Semantic JSX layout components for react-native

This library contains multiple easy-to-use react-native layout components which brings more semantic into your JSX code.

It contains really simple flex-based layout modules like

Install

npm install react-native-layout --save

Why?

Developing apps with react-native is great. But sometimes the JSX markup loses its simplicity with a growing number of components and view elements. Especially when you extracts and imports the stylesheets from an external file.

Usage

Load any of the layout components you would like.

var NativeLayout = require('react-native-layout');

var {
  BorderLayout,
  Center,
  Footer,
  Header,
  Fill,
  LinearLayout,
  HorizontalLinearLayout,
  VerticalLinearLayout,
} = NativeLayout;

var { FillLayout, Top, Left, Right, Bottom } = BorderLayout;

Or using ES6 modules and destructuring..

import NativeLayout, {
  BorderLayout,
  Center,
  Footer,
  Header,
  Fill,
  LinearLayout,
  HorizontalLinearLayout,
  VerticalLinearLayout
} from 'react-native-layout';

const { FillLayout, Top, Left, Right, Bottom } = BorderLayout;

Then use them as shown below...

Center Content

Instead of:

<View style={{ flex: 1, alignItems: 'center', justifyContent: 'center' }}>
    <Text>Center Content</Text>
</View>

Write:

<Center>
    <Text>Center Content</Text>
</Center>

BorderLayout

Instead of:

<View style={{ flex: 1 }}>
    <View><Text>Header</Text></View>
    <View style={{ flex: 1 }}><Text>Content</Text></View>
    <View><Text>Footer</Text></View>
</View>

You could write:

<FillLayout>
    <Top><Text>Header</Text></Top>
    <Bottom><TextFooter</Text></Bottom>
    <View><Text>Content</Text></View>
</FillLayout>
