Stack Navigation
Stack Navigation is one of the most common navigation patterns, allowing screens to be pushed and popped like a stack of cards, similar to how web browser history works.
Creating a Stack Navigator
Navigating Between Screens
Each screen component automatically receives a navigation prop, used to move forward to another screen in the stack.
Going Back
The goBack method removes the current screen from the stack, returning to the previous screen.
Customizing Screen Titles
The options prop on Stack.Screen allows customizing the header title, colors, and other header behavior for each screen.
Push vs Navigate
While navigate moves to a screen or brings an existing instance to the front, the push method always adds a new instance of a screen to the stack, useful for cases like drilling into nested detail pages repeatedly.
Conclusion
Stack Navigation forms the backbone of most React Native apps, providing an intuitive way to move forward and backward between related screens with native transition animations.
