Two buttons sharing a row in react-native - react-native

Question

I have two buttons that look like this
This is the code
render = () => (
<Image
source={require('../../images/login.jpg')}
style={[AppStyles.containerCentered, AppStyles.container, styles.background]}
>
<Image
source={require('../../images/logo.png')}
style={[styles.logo]}
/>
<Spacer size={200} />
<View style={[AppStyles.row, AppStyles.paddingHorizontal]}>
<View style={[AppStyles.flex1]}>
<Button
title={'Login'}
icon={{ name: 'lock' }}
onPress={Actions.login}
/>
</View>
</View>
<Spacer size={10} />
<View style={[AppStyles.row, AppStyles.paddingHorizontal]}>
<View style={[AppStyles.flex1]}>
<Button
title={'Sign up'}
backgroundColor={'#FB6567'}
icon={{ name: 'face' }}
onPress={Actions.signUp}
/>
</View>
</View>
</Image>
)
I want the buttons to occupy one row and possibly share 40% - 40% of the space with the rest of the 20% going to the padding. How can i have them occupy one row?.

You'd need to define a container with flexDirection set to row and use justifyContent depending on where you want your padding:
render() {
return (
<View style={styles.container}>
<View style={styles.button} />
<View style={styles.button} />
</View>
);
}
const styles = StyleSheet.create({
container: {
flex: 1,
flexDirection: 'row',
justifyContent: 'space-between'
},
button: {
backgroundColor: 'green',
width: '40%',
height: 40
}
});
Change space-between to space-around if you want the padding to be distributed to the sides too. (Demo)
