Looks like there are two present issues.

1. The rendered is getting an object as its value
2. Selecting a mention doesn't actually seem to modify the value

It looks like you're rendering elements inside of the as children when you could wrap the <TextInput> and the <Text> overlay in a <View>.

Will try to make a PR.

#32

Not sure how you'd like to test/verify functionality if you don't have a rn-web project already, but it's not too hard to set up. I've been using wml (npm package alternative to npm link that works well with react-native).

Hey there,

Thanks for your comments and especially for your contribution!

Unfortunately, it looks like current library principles don't support web platform. The core advantage of the library is rendering multiple text parts inside TextInput component, which is not supported by web textarea component.

Moreover, your PR is for the legacy implementation of the library, and is incompatible with the refactored next v3 release.

I'm leaving this issue as an initial web feature request, and will close other duplicates. Please continue to share your ides/workaround based on the v3 implementation here.
