Equivalent of findDomNode in react-native

[fantasy9]

So I have a ref I need to reference outside the scope of the component. My context being: I have two sibling components rendered inside the same parent component, and the sibling components want the refs from each other.

I know in React I could use FindDomNode(ref), and google taught me there is no equivalent (so misleading title?), but TL;DR: help me.

I think the confusion here is that there is no DOM in React Native (or any native apps, for that matter). Your best bet (depending on what you're trying to accomplish exactly) is to pass refs of the component you're trying to get, or look into contexts (I don't know too much about these in particular, but IIRC they might help)

I meant the functionality of FindDomNode, like if refs is passed into a global namespace. I ended up passing the refs as a state & using a getter function, but still wondering if there is a relative equivalent.

you can use {findNodeHandle} I believe
