Splash Screen and font in Expo
import { useEffect,useCallback } from 'react';
import { Stack } from 'expo-router';
import * as SplashScreen from 'expo-splash-screen';
import { useFonts } from 'expo-font';
then,
// Prevent the splash screen from auto-hiding before asset loading is complete.
SplashScreen.preventAutoHideAsync();
after this we need to export the layout, with
export default function RootLayout() {
const [loaded, error] = useFonts({
SpaceMono: require('../assets/fonts/SpaceMono-Regular.ttf'),
...FontAwesome.font,
});
we can use useState but use effect and useCallback can be more helpful
useEffect(() => {
if (error) throw error;
}, [error]);
const onLayoutRootView= useCallback(async()=>{
if(loaded){
await SplashScreen.hideAsync();
}
}, [loaded])
if (!loaded) {
return null;
}
