Use Case

Our main use case is an IconButton component using a Pressable where we want to set the title attributes for native tooltips on web.

Alternatives

  • Setting title works through refs (e.g. ref?.setAttribute('title', props.title) - This is a bit inconvenient while working with Typescript, but a valid workaround
  • Building a custom tooltip with the newly available Popover API would be more usable - This is way more work for simple titles and interestfor with hover trigger is not supported in all browsers yet
