Create the Landing Screen

Open Beta Documentation Amazon offers this technical documentation as part of a pre-release, open beta. The features described might change as Amazon receives feedback and iterates on the features. For the most current feature information, see the Release Notes.

Define the LandingSceeen

Now let's add the Header and Video components to a screen called LandingScreen.

Create a new folder under src called screens, and within it create a file called LandingScreen.tsx.

src/
├── screens/
│   └── LandingScreen.tsx
└── App.tsx

Import React, and the Header and VideoCard components in LandingScreen.tsx
Create and export a component called "LandingScreen", which returns the Header and VideoCard components.
Wrap the components in an empty fragment.

The LandingScreen.tsx code should look like this:

Copied to clipboard.

import * as React from 'react';
import Header from '../components/Header';
import VideoCard from '../components/VideoCard';

const LandingScreen = () => {
  return (
    <>
      <Header />
      <VideoCard />
    </>
  );
};

export default LandingScreen;

Render the LandingScreen

Now that we have our LandingScreen defined, we need to update the app to use it.

Open App.tsx and import the LandingScreen.
Remove the import statements for Header and VideoCard, as they are now rendered in the LandingScreen screen.
Remove the Header and VideoCard components and the empty tags in the return statement, and replace them with the LandingScreen.

The App.tsx file should now look like this:

Copied to clipboard.

import * as React from 'react';
import { View, StyleSheet } from 'react-native';
import LandingScreen from './screens/LandingScreen';

export const App = () => {
  return (
    <View style={styles.container}>
      <LandingScreen />
    </View>
  );
};

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  container: {
    flex: 1,
    backgroundColor: '#232F3E',
  },
});

Note that you won't notice any visual changes as we have just moved the components into a screen.
