Description

It would be so great to have an autofocus prop on EditableText. But even without it, I can't find a way to make my EditableText focus when my component mount, has anyone managed to do it ?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Add an autofocus prop to EditableText that uses a ref and useEffect to call focus() on mount.
