| Space    | number or string |

```jsx
import { LayoutProvider, Stack, Spacer } from 'native-layout-stack'

const MyComponent = () => {
  return (
    <Stack padding={[20, 10]} spaces={20}>
      <View />
      <View />
      <View />
    </Stack>
  )
}

const App = () => {
  return (
    <LayoutProvider spaces={10} padding={20}>
      <MyComponent />
    </LayoutProvider>
