function App() {
  const myRef = useRef({})
  useEffect(() => {
    const styleObj = {
      borderWidth: 2,
      borderRadius: 4,
      borderColor: "#1A91FF",
    }
    if (myRef.current && myRef.current.setNativeProps) {
      myRef.current.setNativeProps({
        style: styleObj,
      })
    }
  }, [myRef])
  return <Box h={100} w={100} bg="$primary100" ref={myRef} />
}
