In React Native, everything you see on the screen is built using components.

The two most basic components are:

• View: used as a container;
• Text: used to display any text.

You cannot place text directly inside a View. All text must be wrapped inside a Text component.

Example:

import { View, Text } from 'react-native';

export default function App() {
  return (
    <View>
      <Text>Hello, world</Text>
      <Text>This is my first mobile screen</Text>
    </View>
  );
}

Here, View acts like a wrapper, and Text displays content on the screen.

This is the foundation of every layout in React Native.
