useWindowDimensions

import { useWindowDimensions } from 'react-native';

useWindowDimensions automatically updates width and height values when screen size changes. You can get your application window's width and height like so:

const { height, width } = useWindowDimensions();

Example

• The useDimensions hook from the community React native hooks library aims to make handling screen/window size changes easier to work with.
• React Native Responsive Dimensions also comes with responsive hooks.
