Research direction

Start with the linked MDN documentation for CSS env() and the SafeAreaView reference in the issue. Determine how safe-area-inset-top, right, bottom, and left should behave on native and iOS Web. Done means the shown style properties are supported without requiring SafeAreaView.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

feature
Describe the feature request

Would be cool if the CSS env() function can be used, because this would completely replace the need for a SafeAreaView component on the Native side and at the same time this would even work in iOS Web.

Example:

{
 paddingTop: 'env(safe-area-inset-top)',
 paddingRight: 'env(safe-area-inset-right)',
 paddingBottom: 'env(safe-area-inset-bottom)',
 paddingLeft: 'env(safe-area-inset-left)',
}
