## What it is
A plug-and-play React Native component that automatically adds a spacer view matching the iOS keyboard height, animating layout when the keyboard appears or disappears. It is a small MIT-licensed npm package for React Native apps.

## Use cases
- keep a text input above the iOS keyboard in React Native
- animate views when the keyboard shows or hides
- avoid manual KeyboardAvoidingView configuration
- add custom top spacing above the keyboard
- run callbacks when the keyboard toggles

## When to choose
- you build a React Native app on iOS and need simple keyboard avoidance
- you want a zero-config drop-in component with layout animation
- you need onToggle callbacks with keyboard height

## When to avoid
- non-React Native projects
- apps needing fine-grained keyboard event control beyond spacing
- projects on unmaintained React Native versions incompatible with this package

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, animation, state-management
- domain: mobile-development, frontend, cross-platform
