## Wrap Strings in Text Components
|
|
|
|
Strings must be rendered inside `<Text>`. React Native crashes if a string is a
|
|
direct child of `<View>`.
|
|
|
|
**Incorrect (crashes):**
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
import { View } from 'react-native'
|
|
|
|
function Greeting({ name }: { name: string }) {
|
|
return <View>Hello, {name}!</View>
|
|
}
|
|
// Error: Text strings must be rendered within a <Text> component.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Correct:**
|
|
|
|
```tsx
|
|
import { View, Text } from 'react-native'
|
|
|
|
function Greeting({ name }: { name: string }) {
|
|
return (
|
|
<View>
|
|
<Text>Hello, {name}!</Text>
|
|
</View>
|
|
)
|
|
}
|
|
```
