Another basic React Native component is the [`Image`](/react-native/docs/image.html#content) component. Like `Text`, the `Image` component simply renders an image.
|
|
|
|
> An `Image` is analogous to the `<img>` HTML tag when building websites.
|
|
|
|
The simplest way to render an image is to provide a source file to that image via the `source` attribute.
|
|
|
|
This example displays a checkbox `Image` on the device.
|
|
|
|
```ReactNativeWebPlayer
|
|
import React from 'react';
|
|
import { AppRegistry, Image } from 'react-native';
|
|
|
|
const AwesomeProject = () => {
|
|
return (
|
|
<Image source={require('./img/favicon.png')} />
|
|
);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// App registration and rendering
|
|
AppRegistry.registerComponent('AwesomeProject', () => AwesomeProject);
|
|
```
