Variants and examples

Default

1import { Text } from 'react-native';2import { Elevation } from 'reactnatively';34export function Preview() {5  return (6    <Elevation elevation={2}>7      <Text>Elevation content</Text>8    </Elevation>9  );10}

Composed example

ElevationComposed.tsx

1import { Text } from 'react-native';2import { Elevation, Box } from 'reactnatively';34export function ElevationComposed() {5  return (6    <Box padding="md">7      <Elevation>8        <Text>Elevation content</Text>9      </Elevation>10    </Box>11  );12}

TypeScript IntelliSense

The component exports typed props, so editors can autocomplete prop names, union values, callbacks, and theme-aware style objects as you type.

Elevation.types-example.tsx

1import type { ComponentProps } from 'react';2import { Elevation } from 'reactnatively';34type ElevationProps = ComponentProps<typeof Elevation>;56const exampleProps: ElevationProps = {7  style: undefined,8  testID: "reactnatively-example",9  accessibilityLabel: "Example control",10};1112export function TypedElevation() {13  return <Elevation {...exampleProps} />;14}

Theme support

Elevation participates in the Reactnatively theme system through semantic colors, spacing, radii, typography, motion, and glass tokens where those props apply. Wrap your app in ReactnativelyProvider or ThemeProvider to keep light mode, dark mode, density, and custom tokens consistent.

Accessibility

Use accessible labels, hints, roles, and focus behavior when Elevationis interactive. Reactnatively components are designed for React Native apps that need screen-reader support, reduced-motion handling, and consistent touch targets.

Expo compatibility

Elevation can be used in Expo apps with TypeScript. Glass and blur behavior depends on platform capability, so production interfaces should keep text contrast and fallback tinting readable when native blur is unavailable.
