Simple examples
| Basic | showSkipButton | bottomButton and showSkipButton |
|---|---|---|
![]() | ![]() | ![]() |
The component is based on FlatList so usage is very similar. Pass a data-array to AppIntroSlider along with a renderItem-function:
import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet } from 'react-native';
import AppIntroSlider from 'react-native-app-intro-slider';
const slides = [
{
key: 1,
title: 'Title 1',
text: 'Description.\nSay something cool',
image: require('./assets/1.jpg'),
backgroundColor: '#59b2ab',
},
{
key: 2,
title: 'Title 2',
text: 'Other cool stuff',
image: require('./assets/2.jpg'),
backgroundColor: '#febe29',
},
{
key: 3,
title: 'Rocket guy',
text: 'I\'m already out of descriptions\n\nLorem ipsum bla bla bla',
image: require('./assets/3.jpg'),
backgroundColor: '#22bcb5',
}
];
export default class App extends React.Component {
this.state = {
showRealApp: false
}
_renderItem = ({ item }) => {
return (
<View style={styles.slide}>
<Text style={styles.title}>{item.title}</Text>
<Image source={item.image} />
<Text style={styles.text}>{item.text}</Text>
</View>
);
}
_onDone = () => {
// User finished the introduction. Show real app through
// navigation or simply by controlling state
this.setState({ showRealApp: true });
}
render() {
if (this.state.showRealApp) {
return <App />;
} else {
return <AppIntroSlider renderItem={this._renderItem} data={slides} onDone={this._onDone}/>;
}
}
}Configuring buttons

import React from 'react';
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/Ionicons';
import { StyleSheet, View } from 'react-native';
import AppIntroSlider from 'react-native-app-intro-slider';
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
buttonCircle: {
width: 40,
height: 40,
backgroundColor: 'rgba(0, 0, 0, .2)',
borderRadius: 20,
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center',
},
//[...]
});
// slides = [...]
export default class App extends React.Component {
_renderItem = ({ item }) => {
return (
<View style={styles.slide}>
<Text style={styles.title}>{item.title}</Text>
<Image source={item.image} />
<Text style={styles.text}>{item.text}</Text>
</View>
);
}
_renderNextButton = () => {
return (
<View style={styles.buttonCircle}>
<Ion
name="md-arrow-round-forward"
color="rgba(255, 255, 255, .9)"
size={24}
/>
</View>
);
};
_renderDoneButton = () => {
return (
<View style={styles.buttonCircle}>
<Ion
name="md-checkmark"
color="rgba(255, 255, 255, .9)"
size={24}
/>
</View>
);
};
render() {
return (
<AppIntroSlider
data={slides}
renderDoneButton={this._renderDoneButton}
renderNextButton={this._renderNextButton}
/>
);
}
}Here a custom renderItem is supplied and the bottomButton-props has been set to true. Notice how the setup of slides has been configured to support icons and gradient backgrounds.
