How to create contextual styling with styled components? (zero selector)












0















I would like to know if it's possible to create contextual styling, without any CSS Selector.



Something like:



<Button primary>
<Text>BUTTON</Text> // if the button is primary then have 20px padding else 0
<Icon/> // if the button is primary then have red background
</Button>


The reason I do not really want to use CSS for these are the fact I want to kinda share my components in React Native (where you do not have any selector, or css)

          CSS is the way to go. Not sure why you wouldn't want to use it.



          button {
          padding: 0;
          }

          button[primary] {
          padding: 20px;
          }

          button[primary] icon {
          background-color: red;
          }


          If you don't want to use CSS, perhaps specify your reason, and I might be able to improve on my answer.
