npm install --save react-native-really-awesome-button import AwesomeButton from "react-native-really-awesome-button"; function Button() { return <AwesomeButton>Text</AwesomeButton>; }import AwesomeButton from "react-native-really-awesome-button"; function Button() { return ( <AwesomeButton progress onPress={async (next) => { /** await for something; then: **/ next(); }} > Text </AwesomeButton> ); } import { ThemedButton } from 'react-native-really-awesome-button'; function ButtonWithTheme() { return ( <> <ThemedButton name="rick" type="primary">Rick's Primary Button</ThemedButton> <ThemedButton name="rick" type="secondary">Rick's Secondary Button</ThemedButton> </> ); }import AwesomeButton from "react-native-really-awesome-button"; function ButtonWithCustomChildren() { return ( <AwesomeButton> <Image source="require('send-icon.png)" /> <Text>Send it</Text> </AwesomeButton> ); }Useful for handling icons or any other inlined content which animates together with the button text.
import { ThemedButton } from 'react-native-really-awesome-button'; import { FontAwesome } from "@expo/icons"; function ButtonWithIcon() { return ( <ThemedButton name="bruce" type="primary" before={<FontAwesome name="twitter" />}> Rick's Primary Button </ThemedButton> ); }You can use the extra prop to render a component inside the button content body; this should be useful to render an image or gradient background
