What is it doing?

Actually this is just a MaskedView component with LinearGradient component. It works like this:

• This MaskedView component gets children whose your putted inside and put them to a container View component.
• It runs onLayout event of this container View and get this component's width and hight values.
• It uses this width and hight values on style of 2 LinearGradient components. So, this LinearGradient components get same size with container View.
• After then, it looks at direction property (it can be only "right" or "left") and it starts an transform: translateY animation using react native Animated API.
