Hi Guys,

I am going to explain you example of how to create stack with bottom tab navigation in react native. you can understand a concept of how to implement stack with bottom tab navigation in react native. I explained simply step by step react native stack with bottom tab navigation example. it's simple example of stack with bottom tab navigation example in react native. follow bellow step for how to use stack with bottom tab navigation in react native.

In this example, there are 3 screens (Home, Cart, and Images ) defined using the Tab.Screen component and 1 screen (Test) defined using the Stack.screen component. Similarly, you can define as many screens as you like.

In the first step run the following command to create a project.

expo init BottomTabStack

First, you need to install them in your project:

npm install @react-navigation/native @react-navigation/stack @react-navigation/bottom-tabs   

You also need to install react-native-gesture-handler.

npm install react-native-gesture-handler 

you can set drawer icon to install vector icons:

npm i react-native-vector-icons

you have use any bundled Icon:

import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/Ionicons';

first of all you have create Screens folder inside your project.in this folder create HomeScreen.js file

In this step, You will open the HomeScreen.js file and put the code.

import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text, View, Button } from 'react-native';

const HomeScreen = (props) => {

    const gotoTestStackScreen = () => {
        props.navigation.navigate('Test');
    };

    return (
        <View style={styles.container}>
            <View>
                <Text style={styles.text}>HomeScreen!</Text>
            </View>
            <Button title="Go to test test screen" onPress={gotoTestStackScreen} />
        </View>
    );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
    container: {
        flex: 1,
        justifyContent: 'center',
        alignItems: 'center',
    },
    text: {
        fontSize: 20,
        marginBottom: 10,
    },
});

export default HomeScreen;

Next,create CartScreen.js file inside Screens folder

In this step, You will open the CartScreen.js file and put the code.

import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text, View } from 'react-native';

const CartScreen = () => {
    return (
        <View style={styles.container}>
            <Text style={styles.text}>CartScreen</Text>
        </View>
    );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
    container: {
        flex: 1,
        justifyContent: 'center',
        alignItems: 'center',
    },
    text: {
        fontSize: 20,
    },
});

export default CartScreen;

Next,create ImageScreen.js file inside Screens folder

In this step, You will open the ImageScreen.js file and put the code.

import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text, View } from 'react-native';

const ImageScreen = () => {
    return (
        <View style={styles.container}>
            <Text style={styles.text}>ImageScreen</Text>
        </View>
    );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
    container: {
        flex: 1,
        justifyContent: 'center',
        alignItems: 'center',
    },
    text: {
        fontSize: 20,
    },
});

export default ImageScreen;

Next,create TestScreen.js file inside Screens folder

In this step, You will open the TestScreen.js file and put the code.

import React from 'react';
import { StyleSheet, Text, View } from 'react-native';

const TestScreen = () => {
    return (
        <View style={styles.container}>
            <Text style={styles.text}>TestScreen</Text>
        </View>
    );
}

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
    container: {
        flex: 1,
        justifyContent: 'center',
        alignItems: 'center',
    },
    text: {
        fontSize: 20,
    },
});

export default TestScreen;

Now, you need to wrap the whole app in NavigationContainer. Usually, you'd do this in your entry file, such as App.js:

In this step, You will open the App.js file and put the code.

import * as React from 'react';
import { NavigationContainer } from '@react-navigation/native';
import { createStackNavigator } from '@react-navigation/stack';
import { createBottomTabNavigator } from '@react-navigation/bottom-tabs';
import Icon from 'react-native-vector-icons/Ionicons';

import HomeScreen from './Screens/HomeScreen';
import CartScreen from './Screens/CartScreen';
import ImageScreen from './Screens/ImageScreen';
import TestScreen from './Screens/TestScreen';

const Tab = createBottomTabNavigator();

const MyTabs = () => {
    return (
        <Tab.Navigator
            screenOptions={{
                headerTitleAlign: 'center',
            }}
        >
            <Tab.Screen 
                name="Home"
                component={HomeScreen}
                options={{  
                    tabBarIcon:({ size, color }) => (
                        <Icon name='home' size={size} color={color}  />
                    ),
                }}    
            />
            <Tab.Screen 
                name="Cart"
                component={CartScreen}
                options={{  
                    tabBarIcon:({ size, color }) => (
                        <Icon name='cart' size={size}  color={color} />
                    ),
                }}
            />
            <Tab.Screen 
                name="Images"
                component={ImageScreen}
                options={{  
                    tabBarIcon:({ size, color }) => (
                        <Icon name='images' size={size}  color={color} />
                    ),
                }}
            />
        </Tab.Navigator>
    );
}

const Stack = createStackNavigator();

const App = () => {
    return (
        <NavigationContainer>
            <Stack.Navigator
                initialRouteName="Tabs"
                screenOptions={{
                    headerShown: false,
                }}
            >
                <Stack.Screen 
                    name="Test"
                    component={TestScreen}
                    options={{
                        headerShown: true,
                    }}
                />
                <Stack.Screen name="Tabs" component={MyTabs} />
            </Stack.Navigator>
        </NavigationContainer>
    );
}

export default App;

In the last step run your project using the below command.

expo start
