Anatomy
import { AlertDialog } from 'tamagui' // or '@tamagui/alert-dialog'export default () => (<AlertDialog><AlertDialog.Trigger /><AlertDialog.Portal><AlertDialog.Overlay /><AlertDialog.Content><AlertDialog.Title /><AlertDialog.Description /><AlertDialog.Cancel />{/* ... */}</AlertDialog.Content></AlertDialog.Portal></AlertDialog>)

Examples
Inside native modals
If you're using native modals (maybe from react-navigation), you'll notice the Dialogs won't show up inside the modal. To get around this, you should wrap your screen inside PortalProvider
, like so:
import { PortalProvider } from 'tamagui'// this component used in react-navigation/expo-router with `presentation: "modal"`export function Page() {return (<PortalProvider>{/* rest of your page, including the Dialog... */}</PortalProvider>)}
