How do I use ListView in React Native?

To use ListView in React Native, you need to import it from 'react-native' and provide data and renderRow functions.

Can you show me a basic example?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

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

const dataSource = new ListView.DataSource({ rowHasChanged: (r1, r2) => r1 !== r2 });

const MyListView = () => {
  const data = ['Item 1', 'Item 2', 'Item 3'];
  const ds = dataSource.cloneWithRows(data);

  return (
    <ListView
      dataSource={ds}
      renderRow={(rowData) => <Text>{rowData}</Text>}
    />
  );
};

This will render a simple list of items.

What are the advantages of using ListView?

ListView is efficient for rendering large lists, supports scrolling, and allows for easy customization of rows.

Is ListView deprecated in favor of FlatList?
