📜 Description

Mention better alternative to KeyboardAvoidingView with translate-with-padding behavior.

💡 Motivation and Context

The KeyboardAvoidingView with translate-with-padding behavior was a go to solution for chat applications in the past. However modifying external layout approach showed many disadvantages, especially for chat application screens, this is why #1314 was added

So documentation has inconsistencies, because in one guide we recommend one thing and claim that this is the best-in-class solution and have a separate guide that targets building chat application. So I decided to add a note and propose users to use KeyboardChatScrollView because it doesn't have all fundamental API limitations as KeyboardAvoidingView has.

📢 Changelog

Docs

  • mention better alternative to KeyboardAvoidingView with translate-with-padding behavior.
