StyleSheet

A StyleSheet is an abstraction similar to CSS StyleSheets

Create a new StyleSheet:

var styles = StyleSheet.create({ container: { borderRadius: 4, borderWidth: 0.5, borderColor: '#d6d7da', }, title: { fontSize: 19, fontWeight: 'bold', }, activeTitle: { color: 'red', }, });

Use a StyleSheet:

<View style={styles.container}> <Text style={[styles.title, this.props.isActive && styles.activeTitle]} /> </View>

Code quality:

• By moving styles away from the render function, you're making the code easier to understand.
• Naming the styles is a good way to add meaning to the low level components in the render function.

Performance:

• Making a stylesheet from a style object makes it possible to refer to it by ID instead of creating a new style object every time.
• It also allows to send the style only once through the bridge. All subsequent uses are going to refer an id (not implemented yet).
