React Native AutoLink

Auto-Linking component for React Native. Parses text and wraps URLs, phone numbers, emails, social handles, hashtags, and more with Text nodes and onPress handlers. And it's all fully customizable :)

Installation

npm install react-native-autolink --save

import Autolink from 'react-native-autolink';

class MyComponent extends Component {
  render() {
    return (

        hashtag="instagram"

      />
