But unable to do so. Following is my react nat

Answer 1

Use the pagingEnabled property in ScrollView.

const screenHeight = Dimensions.get('window').height;

class Screen extends Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
  }

  render() {
    return (
      <ScrollView pagingEnabled>
        <Page1 style={{height: screenHeight}} />
        <Page2 style={{height: screenHeight}} />
      </ScrollView>
    );
  }
}

Answer 2

You don't need other libraries you can do that with ScrollView. All you need is to add the following props in your component.

    horizontal= {true}
    decelerationRate={0}
    snapToInterval={200} //your element width
    snapToAlignment={"center"}

Answer 3

There are several options. Here are two that I've tried and work fine. I prefer the second one because as its doc says "like ListView, this can render hundreds of pages without performance issue".

1. react-native-page-swiper
2. react-native-viewpager

If you don't want to use snapToInterval because of the misalignment for long lists you can use snapToOffsets which is more precise.

for example:

const { width } = Dimensions.get('window');
this.IMAGE_WIDTH = width * (1 / 2.5)
this.image_margin = 5
this.nishhar = width - ((this.IMAGE_WIDTH + this.image_margin) * 2 + this.image_margin * 2)

dataNum = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]

return (<FlatList
            data={dataNum}
            renderItem={item => {
                return (
                    <View style={{
                        backgroundColor: item.index % 2 == 0 ? 'red' : 'blue',
                        width: this.IMAGE_WIDTH,
                        height: this.IMAGE_WIDTH,
                        marginLeft: this.image_margin,
                        marginRight: this.image_margin,
                    }}>
                    </View>)
            }}
            keyExtractor={this.keyGenerator}
            horizontal={true}
            snapToAlignment={"start"}
            snapToOffsets={[...Array(dataNum.length)].map((x, i) => (i * (this.IMAGE_WIDTH + 2 * this.image_margin) - (this.nishhar * 0.5)))}
            decelerationRate={"fast"}
            pagingEnabled
        />)
