[Docs] Components roadmap?

[bootstraponline]

Is there a list of components that are planned for react-native on iOS?

It'd be nice to have:

• UIButton
• SecureTextInput (I think this is done via secureTextEntry and UITextField)

[ide]

I just published react-native-button if you want to give it a try. It's very simple and primarily makes it more convenient to create iOS-style buttons with the correct opacity constant.

[bootstraponline]

Cool! I think for the secure text field, there needs to be a way to enable the secureTextEntry
trait on the existing react-native TextInput component.

[ide]

You're totally right. I added a bunch of TextInput properties in #109. It wouldn't be too hard to expose secureTextEntry (especially since it's just a boolean) in a similar way.

[bootstraponline]

My use case is having a user type in their password to the secure textinput (regular textinput isn't desirable for this) as part of logging into the app. I see secureTextEntry in that PR, it's just not exported as a view property. It'd be great if this feature was added.

@vjeux - any plans to publicize a project roadmap? in other words, is it on your roadmap to publish a roadmap? 😄

[vjeux]

For the components, we open sourced all the ones that we have that do not depend on fb infra and are in a good shape.

As for publishing a roadmap, we first need to figure one out :))

More seriously, one idea that was thrown around was to add a "What are we working on" section in the rc changelogs every two weeks. This way we can give people some visibility into what's coming next.

@vjeux - "What are we working on" would be nice to see!
