Custom alert dialog in react native?

Question

I'm trying to create a custom alert dialog with an image background and some custom styling, but can't seem to find out how to do this using Alert or AlertIOS in react-native. Is this possible, or is there some library that can help me out?

Answer 1

Both Alert and AlertIOS utilise each platform's native simple alert dialog. On iOS the underlying native component is simplistic and only accepts a title, message, and buttons, with a similar case on Android.

For a more custom approach you could use React Native Modalbox, or React Native Modal - both of which provide a highly-customisable modal component.

In future I'd recommend using JS.coach for a comprehensive list of quality React Native components.
