Ever have the situation where you sometimes had content that was shorter than the screen size and didn’t require scrolling but occasionally had content taller than the screen size, thus necessitating scroll to allow the user to see all the content.

React native scrollview provide feature to create scrolllable content on both direction ( vertically and horizontally ).

React Native ScrollView example.

App.js


import React, { Component } from "react";
import { ScrollView, StyleSheet, Text, View } from "react-native";
class App extends Component {
  state = {
    products: [
      { product: "Rice", id: 1 },
      { product: "Sweets", id: 2 },
      { product: "Fruits", id: 3 },
      { product: "Animals", id: 4 },
      { product: "humans", id: 5 },
      { product: "sport", id: 6 },
      { product: "kitchen", id: 7 },
      { product: "childrens", id: 8 },
      { product: "men", id: 9 },
      { product: "old people", id: 10 },
      { product: "shafty", id: 11 },
      { product: "transport", id: 12 }
    ]
  };
  render() {
    return (
      <View>
        <ScrollView>
          {this.state.products.map((item, index) => (
            <View key={item.id} style={styles.item}>
              <Text>{item.product}</Text>
            </View>
          ))}
        </ScrollView>
      </View>
    );
  }
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  item: {
    flexDirection: "row",
    justifyContent: "space-between",
    alignItems: "left",
    padding: 20,
    margin: 2,
    borderColor: "pink",
    borderWidth: 3,
    backgroundColor: "yellow"
  }
});
export default App;

...
    <ScrollView
        horizontal={true}
    >
        {this.state.products.map((item, index) => (
        <View key={item.id} style={styles.item}>
            <Text>{item.product}</Text>
        </View>
        ))}
    </ScrollView>
...
