How do I use Flexbox in React Native?

Flexbox is a layout model that allows you to design a responsive layout in React Native. You can use properties like flexDirection, justifyContent, and alignItems to control the layout.

Can you give me an example of a Flexbox layout?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

import React from 'react';
import { View, Text, StyleSheet } from 'react-native';

const App = () => {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <View style={styles.box1}><Text>Box 1</Text></View>
      <View style={styles.box2}><Text>Box 2</Text></View>
    </View>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    flexDirection: 'row',
    justifyContent: 'space-between',
    alignItems: 'center',
  },
  box1: {
    width: 100,
    height: 100,
    backgroundColor: 'red',
  },
  box2: {
    width: 100,
    height: 100,
    backgroundColor: 'blue',
  },
});

export default App;

What do the properties flexDirection and justifyContent do?

flexDirection defines the direction of the main axis (row or column), while justifyContent aligns children along that axis, controlling spacing.
