react native functional components can't have reference code example

Example: createref in functional component

function CustomTextInput(props) {
  // textInput must be declared here so the ref can refer to it
  const textInput = useRef(null);
  
  function handleClick() {
    textInput.current.focus();
  }
  
  return (
    <div>
      <input
        type="text"
        ref={textInput} />
    </div>
  );
}
