React Native responsive image width while width/height ratio of image keeps the same

Question

I want a React Native Image to have a width of 50% of the available screen-width, no modification to width:height ratio of the image.

Any hints how to solve this?

Answer 1

Use resize mode cover and set the width to ScreenWidth / 2 you can retrive the screen width using Dimensions component

//Get screen width using Dimensions component 
var {width} = Dimensions.get('window');
//....
//In image style 
image:{
   width: width * 0.5
}
//In render function

Edit adding overflow

//add overflow : visible
