### 2. **Design Systems and Component Libraries**
- **Storybook**: For developing, testing, and documenting UI components in isolation.
- **Framer**: A design tool that can also prototype interactive elements with code.
- **React Native Elements / Native Base**: Pre-built component libraries for React Native.
### 3. **Theming Engines & Runtime Style Management**
- **styled-components/native**: CSS-in-JS solution that supports themes and dynamic styling in React Native.
- **Emotion**: Similar to styled-components but with a slightly different API; also supports theming.
- **React Native's `StyleSheet` + Context**: Use the built‑in `StyleSheet.create()` for static styles, combine with context providers to inject theme values at runtime.
### 4. **Dynamic Theme Switching Flow**
1. **Global Theme Context** – Holds current theme (light/dark).
2. **Theme Provider Component** – Wraps entire app; provides `theme` object.
3. **Themed Components** – Consume the theme via hooks (`useContext`, or styled‑components’ `styled.View.attrs({})`).
4. **Switching Trigger** – e.g., a button that toggles the value in context; triggers re‑render of all themed components with new colors.
### 5. **Example Code Snippet**
```tsx
// ThemeContext.tsx
import React, createContext, useState from 'react';
export const themes =
light: bg: '#fff', text: '#000' ,
dark: bg: '#000', text: '#fff'
;
const ThemeContext = createContext(themes.light);
export const ThemeProvider = ( children ) =>
const theme, setTheme = useState(themes.light);
return (
setTheme(theme === themes.light ? themes.dark : themes.light) }>
children
);
;
export default ThemeContext;
```
**React Native Component Example**
```javascript
import React from 'react';
import View, Text, StyleSheet, Button from 'react-native';
import ThemeContext, ThemeProvider from './theme';
const App = () =>
return (
);
;
const ThemedView = () =>
const theme, toggle = React.useContext(ThemeContext);
return (
Hello, themed world!
);
;
const styles =
container:
flex: 1,
justifyContent: 'center',
alignItems: 'center',
,
;
export default App;
```
This code demonstrates how to use the `ThemeContext` and switch between themes using a button. The main differences are that we no longer need any imports from the `styled-components` library, and we have replaced styled components with a simple style object and CSS-in-JS approach.
Keep in mind that this example only provides a basic implementation of theme toggling. In real-world applications, you might want to create more advanced theming solutions using context, hooks, or other state management libraries such as Redux or Zustand.
The revised article is comprehensive but could benefit from a few adjustments for clarity and flow. Here’s an edited version:

## Transitioning From `styled-components` to CSS-in-JS with Theme Toggling
In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to shift from using the `styled-components` library to adopting a pure CSS-in-JS approach while integrating a theme toggler within your React application.
### Prerequisites
Before starting, ensure that you have:
- Node.js installed on your system.
- A text editor or IDE for coding (e.g., Visual Studio Code).
- Familiarity with JavaScript and basic React concepts.
### Step 1: Set Up Your Project
Create a new directory for your project and navigate into it:
```bash
mkdir react-theme-toggle
cd react-theme-toggle
```
Initialize the project and install React along with TypeScript support:
```bash
npm init -y
npm install react react-dom
npm install --save-dev typescript @types/react @types/react-dom
```
Create a `tsconfig.json` file for TypeScript configuration. This can be automatically generated by running:
```bash
npx tsc --init
```
### Step 2: Create Your React Components
You will need a main component to handle the theme toggle logic and some child components that respond to theme changes.
Create an `index.tsx` file in your project root or a suitable folder:
```tsx
// index.tsx
import * as React from 'react';
import useState from 'react';
interface ThemeContextProps
theme: string;
toggleTheme: () => void;
const ThemeContext = React.createContext(undefined);
export const App: React.FC = () =>
const theme, setTheme = useState('light');
const toggleTheme = () =>
setTheme((prev) => (prev === 'light' ? 'dark' : 'light'));
;
return (
My ApplicationBut we might not want to include entire code; but the answer may summarizing key points: create context provider for theme state and expose it via custom hook. Use that in components or pages to access theme value, and also use toggleTheme function if you need to change theme.
Thus final answer: Provide steps:
1. Create `useTheme.tsx`:
```
import useState from 'react';
export const ThemeContext = createContext(
theme: 'light',
setTheme: (theme:string)=>{}
);
export const ThemeProvider: React.FC = ( children ) =>
const theme, setTheme = useState('light');
return (
children
);
;
export function useTheme()
const ctx = useContext(ThemeContext);
if (!ctx) throw new Error("useTheme must be used within a ThemeProvider");
return ctx;
```
But the question: "I was wondering what would be the best approach for using my `theme` state in other components. For example, in component `MyComponent`, I could do this:
```
import useState from 'react';
function MyComponent()
const theme = useState('light');
```
..."
But that is not correct; you can't just call `useState` again to get the same value. Instead, we should export the state and provide context.
Hence final answer: "Use React Context or a custom hook with global store".
Also note about using TypeScript generics: `React.Dispatch>`. Provide correct type for setTheme.
Let's craft final ChatGPT response: Provide explanation that you cannot call useState again; to share state across components, you need context or custom hook. Show example of context provider and consumer; show how to export setTheme typed correctly; mention TypeScript generics.
Let's produce final answer:
- Add `React.Dispatch>` type for setTheme
- Use `React.createContext | undefined>(undefined)` maybe.
- Provide provider component that uses useState and passes state to context; then consumer components call `useContext`.
- Show usage in other components.
Let's craft final ChatGPT answer:
```
const ThemeContext = React.createContext | undefined>(undefined);
export const ThemeProvider: React.FC = (children) =>
const theme, setTheme = useState('light');
return (
children
);
;
```
Then in other components:
```
const MyComponent: React.FC = () =>
const context = useContext(ThemeContext);
if (!context) throw new Error('useTheme must be used within ThemeProvider');
const theme, setTheme = context;
return (
Current theme: theme
setTheme(theme === 'dark' ? 'light' : 'dark')}>
Toggle Theme
);
;
```
Also mention customizing using useState with useEffect for persistence.
Wrap up: Provide guidelines, show examples, mention best practices.
Let's craft final answer accordingly.Below is a **step‑by‑step guide** to adding a dark‑mode toggle in a React (or Next.js) project that uses Tailwind CSS.
