Mastering the Library

With rn-faster-ui, you can write UIs for React Native apps in the shortest time possible. Components start with C prefix e.g a Text component is written as CText, a FlatList as CFlatList, Image as CImage, View ad CView, etc. The library focuses on style props that is properties that are passed in the style object in React Native by providing a precise way of writing styles. Non style props can still be passed normally in rn-faster-ui components forexample numOfLines on a Text component, initialNumToRender on a FlatList among others.

For properties with one word like color, width, height, etc, you just write the first letter (c="red", w={"100%}, h={200}, etc) and pass it directly as a prop in lower case, not through the style prop, the library does the heavy lifting for you.

import { CText } from 'rn-faster-ui';

export const App = () => {
  return (
    <>
      <CText c="red" w={"100%"} h={200}>
        {"Some Text"}
      </CText>
       <CText children="Some Text" c="red" w={"100%"} h={200}  /> // you can possibly have it self closing
    </>;
  )
}

If a property name has 2 words but written in camelCase like fontSize, paddingLeft, fontWeight, etc, you write the first letter of the first word followed by the first letter of the second word (fs={17}, pl={20}, fw={'bold'}, etc) and pass it as a prop in lower case.

import { CText } from 'rn-faster-ui';

export const App = () => {
  return (
    <>
      <CText children="Some Text" fs={17} pl={20} fw={'bold'}  />
    </>;
  )
}

If a property name has 3 or more words but written in camelCase like textDecorationColor, testShadowColor, etc, you write the first letter of the first word followed by the first letter of the second word followed by first letter of the third word, in that order (tdc={"red"}, tsc={"blue"}, etc) and pass it as a prop in lower case.

import { CText } from 'rn-faster-ui';

export const App = () => {
  return (
    <>
      <CText children="Some Text" tdc={"red"} tsc={"blue"}  />
    </>;
  )
}

If more than one property name start with same letters, regardles of whether its a 1-word, 2-word or 3-word property, we write one of them normally and add an extra character on the rest, e.g fontSize and fontStyle, all have 2 words, and all start with f and s. We write one of them as usual and then include another character on the remaining property for example, we write fontSize as fs and then fontStyle as fst.

import { CText } from 'rn-faster-ui';

export const App = () => {
  return (
    <>
      <CText children="Some Text" fs={20} fst="italic"  />
    </>;
  )
}

Backward Compatibility

The library is backward compatible in relation to its mother component provider that is core react native. If youre not sure the abbreviation of a particular style prop, in addition to checking the documentation for a particular component to find out, you have 2 other options that is writing the style prop normally and passing it to the component with desired style properties inline or through a StyleSheet e.g

import { CView } from 'rn-faster-ui';

export const App = () => {
  return (
    <>
      <CView
      style={{width: 200, height, 400, backgroundColor: '#678900'}} // inline styles(can also accept them through a StyleSheet)
      >
       {/* Content/children goes here */}
      </CView>
    </>;
  )
}

And writing style prop directly as a prop e.g

import { CText } from 'rn-faster-ui';

export const App = () => {
  return (
    <>
      <CText children="Some Text" fontSize={20} color="gray" fontWeight="bold"  />
    </>;
  )
}

In this case, the library does the heavy lifting for you so you donot have to worry whether the library will differentiate a style prop from non-style prop. It definately will do the job very well.
