StyleSheet

Work with strict styles that provide deterministic rendering and automatically adapt to localized writing direction.

The StyleSheet abstraction converts predefined styles to (vendor-prefixed) CSS without requiring a compile-time step. Styles that cannot be resolved outside of the render loop (e.g., dynamic positioning) are usually applied as inline styles.

import { StyleSheet } from 'react-native';

Did you know? StyleSheet automatically merges styles and produces “utility” CSS for lightweight, reliable, and performant styling. Read more in the styling guide.


API

Static properties

absoluteFill ?number

A very common pattern is to create overlays with position absolute and zero positioning, so absoluteFill can be used for convenience and to reduce duplication of these repeated styles.

absoluteFillObject ?Object

Sometimes you may want absoluteFill but with a couple tweaks - absoluteFillObject can be used to create a customized entry in a StyleSheet.

hairlineWidth ?Object

Equal to 1px. This is not implemented using screen density as browsers may round sub-pixel values down to 0, causing the line not to be rendered.

Static methods

create ({ [key]: ruleset }) => ({ [key]: ruleset })

Define style objects. Each key of the object passed to create must define a style object. These values should not be introspected at runtime.

flatten (styles: Style) => Object

Flatten an array of styles into a single style object. This is not recommended as it is not compatible with static extraction of styles to CSS.
