React Native Pickers

One dependency-free package for every picker a React Native app needs — wheel, time, date (calendar, range, multiple, wheel), select / dropdown, emoji, and the bottom sheets to put them in.

npm

npm install @elik56a/react-native-pickers

yarn

yarn add @elik56a/react-native-pickers

pnpm

pnpm add @elik56a/react-native-pickers

Expo

npx expo install @elik56a/react-native-pickers

It is 100% JavaScript with zero native code, so it runs unchanged in Expo Go, bare React Native and React Native Web. There's no pod install, no rebuild and no config plugin.

Why this library

• No native code. Works in Expo Go and on the web with nothing to link. The UI and behaviour are identical on iOS, Android and web, so your design isn't at the mercy of each OS's picker.
• One consistent API. Every picker takes value + onChange (controlled) or defaultValue (uncontrolled), a theme, a styles object for each visual part, and render props for full control.
• Themeable to the pixel. Light and dark themes are built in and follow the OS automatically. Override any token globally with PickersProvider, or per component.
• International. Month, weekday and AM/PM names, the 12/24-hour clock, the first day of the week and the date-wheel order all come from Intl for any locale. Layouts flip for RTL.
• Accessible. Wheels are adjustable (VoiceOver / TalkBack swipe up and down). Days announce their full date, and selected / disabled states are exposed.
• Fast. Animations use the native driver. Wheels and the emoji grid are virtualized with fixed row layouts, and rows are memoized.
• Typed. Written in TypeScript, with generics for value types and discriminated unions for selection modes, so mode="range" gives you a typed { start, end }.
