React-native-swiper: So this is dead right?

[nikolasleblanc]

40+ eager PRs, and nothing doing. This done?

[Eqls]

Starting to think the same.

@arribbar ?

[ArtiomShapovalov]

maybe somebody else will maintain it?

[Eqls]

Ehm I'll just use ScrollView instead, does the same thing basically

[JulianKingman]

https://github.com/archriss/react-native-snap-carousel appears to be the next-best library. It has a different API (uses Flatlist), but it's pretty smooth, well-maintained, and no notable problems so far.

edit: looks good for some situations, but it has its own problems.

There's an issue here calling for contributors: https://github.com/leecade/react-native-swiper/issues/185

I asked to be added, if you're interested in contributing add your name, too.

[nikolasleblanc]

Looks like there are about 41 contributions so far, how do we get them merged?

@nikolasleblanc We fork it and continue working on it or see how to add it to react-native-community

@JulianKingman Thanks a lot man for the alternative. It worked pretty well for me.

76+ eager PRs, and nothing doing. Is this done?

[fredlemieux]

That would be fantastic if we could fork this can continue it, it's a great library.
I'd be glad to help but I'm a bit new to all this...

react-native-snap-carousel is used to implement tinder carousel effects, where the user swipes a number of images (cards) and it is based on FlatList.

It is not appropriate if you want to build an app similar to snapchat, where the user uses gesture to move between different screens.

The only option is building all the functionalities, maybe taking as reference this article from Spencer Carli or use ScrollView

Spencer Carli used the Scroll View inside the Menu Component to render the same effect.

If you don't want the warning in your debugger's console log.

1. Install https://github.com/react-native-community/react-native-viewpager with yarn as mentionned in the Readme
2. link library as mentionned in the doc
3. go to .\node_modules\react-native-swiper\src\index.js and change the ViewPagerAndroid component with "ViewPager" (don't forget to import it with : import ViewPager from "@react-native-community/viewpager";)
4. It works for me.
Hope it helps.
