Controlling the pages imperatively

You can control the Onboarding component imperatively with useRef.

const onboardingRef = useRef<Onboarding>(null);

<Onboarding
    ref={onboardingRef}
    pages={pages}
/>

onboardingRef.current.goNext()
onboardingRef.current.goToPage(2, true)
onboardingRef.current.goToPage(2, false)

Methods:

• goNext() : Go to the next page.
• goToPage(pageIndex, animated) : Go to the selected page.
