## Usage

### Basic divider

```tsx
import { Host, Divider, VStack, Text } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui';

export default function BasicDividerExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <VStack>
        <Text>First section</Text>
        <Divider />
        <Text>Second section</Text>
      </VStack>
    </Host>
  );
}
```

### Divider in a list

```tsx
import { Host, Divider, VStack, Text } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui';

export default function DividerInListExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <VStack spacing={8}>
        <Text>Item 1</Text>
        <Divider />
        <Text>Item 2</Text>
        <Divider />
        <Text>Item 3</Text>
        <Divider />
        <Text>Item 4</Text>
      </VStack>
    </Host>

}
```

import { Host, ContextMenu, Button, Text, Divider } from '@expo/ui/swift-ui';

export default function DividerInContextMenuExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <ContextMenu>
        <ContextMenu.Items>
          <Button label="Edit" onPress={() => console.log('Edit')} />
          <Button label="Duplicate" onPress={() => console.log('Duplicate')} />
          <Divider />
          <Button label="Delete" role="destructive" onPress={() => console.log('Delete')} />
        </ContextMenu.Items>
        <ContextMenu.Trigger>
          <Text>Long press me</Text>
        </ContextMenu.Trigger>
