Component Patterns

Functional Components Only
typescript
// Good - simple, testable
interface ButtonProps {
label: string;
onPress: () => void;
disabled?: boolean;
}
export function Button({ label, onPress, disabled = false }: ButtonProps): JSX.Element {
return (
<Pressable onPress={onPress} disabled={disabled}>
<Text>{label}</Text>
</Pressable>
);
}
Extract Logic to Hooks
typescript
// useHome.ts - all logic here
export function useHome() {
const [items, setItems] = useState<Item[]>([]);
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
const refresh = useCallback(async () => {
setLoading(true);
const data = await fetchItems();
setItems(data);
setLoading(false);
}, []);
return { items, loading, refresh };
}
// HomeScreen.tsx - pure presentation
export function HomeScreen(): JSX.Element {
const { items, loading, refresh } = useHome();
return (
<ItemList items={items} loading={loading} onRefresh={refresh} />
);
}
Props Interface Always Explicit
typescript
// Always define props interface, even if simple
interface ItemCardProps {
item: Item;
onPress: (id: string) => void;
}
export function ItemCard({ item, onPress }: ItemCardProps): JSX.Element {
...
}

State Management

Local State First
typescript
// Start with useState, escalate only when needed
const [value, setValue] = useState('');
Zustand for Global State (if needed)
typescript
// store/useAppStore.ts
import { create } from 'zustand';
interface AppState {
user: User | null;
setUser: (user: User | null) => void;
}
export const useAppStore = create<AppState>((set) => ({
user: null,
setUser: (user) => set({ user }),
}));
React Query for Server State
typescript
// hooks/useItems.ts
import { useQuery, useMutation, useQueryClient } from '@tanstack/react-query';
export function useItems() {
return useQuery({
queryKey: ['items'],
queryFn: fetchItems,
});
}
export function useCreateItem() {
const queryClient = useQueryClient();
return useMutation({
mutationFn: createItem,
onSuccess: () => {
queryClient.invalidateQueries({ queryKey: ['items'] });
},
});
}

Testing

Component Testing with React Native Testing Library
typescript
import { render, fireEvent } from '@testing-library/react-native';
import { Button } from './Button';
describe('Button', () => {
it('calls onPress when pressed', () => {
const onPress = jest.fn();
const { getByText } = render(<Button label="Click me" onPress={onPress} />);
fireEvent.press(getByText('Click me'));
expect(onPress).toHaveBeenCalledTimes(1);
});
it('does not call onPress when disabled', () => {
const onPress = jest.fn();
const { getByText } = render(<Button label="Click me" onPress={onPress} disabled />);
fireEvent.press(getByText('Click me'));
expect(onPress).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
});
});
Hook Testing
typescript
import { renderHook, act } from '@testing-library/react-hooks';
import { useCounter } from './useCounter';
describe('useCounter', () => {
it('increments counter', () => {
const { result } = renderHook(() => useCounter());
act(() => {
result.current.increment();
});
expect(result.current.count).toBe(1);
});
});

Platform-Specific Code

Use Platform.select Sparingly
typescript
import { Platform } from 'react-native';
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
shadow: Platform.select({
ios: {
shadowColor: '#000',
shadowOffset: { width: 0, height: 2 },
shadowOpacity: 0.1,
},
android: {
elevation: 2,
},
}),
});

React Native Anti-Patterns

  • ❌ Inline styles - use StyleSheet.create
  • ❌ Logic in render - extract to hooks
  • ❌ Deep component nesting - flatten hierarchy
  • ❌ Anonymous functions in props - use useCallback
  • ❌ Index as key in lists - use stable IDs
  • ❌ Direct state mutation - always use setter
  • ❌ Mixing business logic with UI - keep core/ pure
  • ❌ Ignoring TypeScript errors - fix them
  • ❌ Large components - split into smaller pieces
