  Tesla chief executive Elon Musk has sold around $5bn of shares in the
  electric carmaker. It comes days after he asked his 63 million Twitter
  followers whether he should sell 10% of his stake in Tesla. The
  company's shares fell by around 16% in the two days after the poll
  came came out in favour of him selling shares, before regaining some
  ground Wednesday. Tesla is the world's most valuable carmaker, with a
  market valuation of more than $1tn. Mr Musk's trust sold almost 3.6
  million shares in Tesla, worth around $4bn.

  The ad in the Sunday paper clearly says it's only $2.99 for a baker's
  dozen. But the store clerk insisted on giving me only 12 doughnuts. So
  I finally had to call the manager. I was right a baker's dozen is 13.

Props

Prop	Type	Default	Require	Description
TextProps	TextProps	null	N	Props of RN Text component, like "style", "numberOfLines", eg. https://reactnative.dev/docs/text#props
matchText	object / Array	null	N	Match the content you want and set the text props for it.

Example of matchText:

{
    match: /Github/gi,
    style: {
        fontWeight: 'bold'
    }
}

or

[
    {
        match: 'Privacy Policy',
        style: { color: 'blue' }
    },
    {
        match: /Github/gi,
        style: { 
            fontWeight: 'bold',
            onPress: () => {}
        }
    }
]

How it works

If I want to make the below keyword "react" to be red.

<Style>react native style text from <Text>Github</Text></Style>

to

["react native style text from ", <Text>Github</Text>];

to

[<Text style={{ color: 'red' }}>react</Text>, " native style text from ", <Text>Github</Text>]

at last, use the RN Text component to render it.
