in the example code, the height attribute on the scroll container does not work
Hey there- you’re right, thank you for pointing that out – in order to have a specific height on a ScrollIView component we have to wrap it up in View wrapper and set the height there.
Do you know what happens with a flex layout inside scroll view?

The problem is that once I add a scroll view, flex:1 stops working
Doing complex grid layouts in React Native is a little bit tricky so you’d be better off using some kind of 3rd party library like https://github.com/saleel/react-native-super-grid.
thank you so much for the explanation, especially the difference between “style” and “contentContainerStyle”, which was the part that helps me to fix my problem.
I’m really glad that I could help you!
Hello. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
In Android it seems that paddingBottom and marginBottom do not work correctly, you have to set paddingBottom on contentContainerStyle to give a little space at the bottom of the ScrollView. Is it a correct behavior or is there a bug?
Hello, Yes this is a correct behaviour, in my current experience ScrollView is the one component that has the highest amount of differences on Android vs iOS.
