Usage

Horizontal divider

A thin horizontal line to visually separate content in lists and layouts.

HorizontalDividerExample.tsx

import { Host, HorizontalDivider, Column, Text } from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose';

export default function HorizontalDividerExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <Column>
        <Text>First section</Text>
        <HorizontalDivider />
        <Text>Second section</Text>
      </Column>
    </Host>
  );
}

Custom thickness and color

Both HorizontalDivider and VerticalDivider accept thickness and color props. Use StyleSheet.hairlineWidth for a single-pixel line, or set a custom thickness and color.

CustomDividerExample.tsx

import { Host, HorizontalDivider, Column, Text } from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose';
import { StyleSheet } from 'react-native';

export default function CustomDividerExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <Column>
        <Text>Hairline divider (1 pixel)</Text>
        <HorizontalDivider thickness={StyleSheet.hairlineWidth} />
        <Text>Thick colored divider</Text>
        <HorizontalDivider thickness={4} color="#E91E63" />
        <Text>Below</Text>
      </Column>
    </Host>
  );
}

Vertical divider

A vertical line to separate items side by side in a row layout.

VerticalDividerExample.tsx

import { Host, VerticalDivider, Row, Text } from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose';
import { height } from '@expo/ui/jetpack-compose/modifiers';

export default function VerticalDividerExample() {
  return (
    <Host matchContents>
      <Row verticalAlignment="center" modifiers={[height(48)]}>
        <Text>Left</Text>
        <VerticalDivider />
