VSC does not show any props on TextField

[softshipper]

Hi all,

VSC can not find any props on TextField:

It seems, that the types do not work properly.

Version:
"react-native-ui-lib": "^6.1.2"

Best regards,

Looking at the types (if you right click on the and select go to definition it'll take you there) you'll see that there are some components that they're aware aren't backed with typings:

node_modules/react-native-ui-lib/generatedTypes/index.d.ts:

/* All components that are missing either manual or auto generated typings */
export const AnimatedImage;
export const AnimatedScanner;
export const DateTimePicker;
export const TextField;

I'm not sure the exact reasons but based on #1603 they're deprecating the TextField component in favour of Incubator.TextField: https://wix.github.io/react-native-ui-lib/docs/Incubator.TextField/ which does have typings setup so I'd suggest you go forward with that one instead as I doubt typings will be added for the soon to be deprecated component.

@kieran-osgood Thanks for answer. What does Incubator means?

Components under Incubator namepsace are experimental new components we gradually testing and releasing.
Specifically the Incubator.TextField component is at its final stage and will probably officially replace the TextField on the next major version

@ethanshar Thanks for clarification.
