React Native Styling problems

I have problems with styling in React Native inside a nested view.

Desired Outcome: enter image description here

my Design : enter image description here

As you can see I have problems allocating the text horizontally

Code:

let width = Dimensions.get('window').width - 42;

const styles = StyleSheet.create({
  cardBorder: {
    marginTop: 25,
    marginLeft: 20,
    marginRight: 20,
    borderColor: "grey",
    borderWidth: 1,
    borderRadius: 5,
    overflow: 'hidden',
  },
  titleText: {
    ...FONT_SEMI_BOLD,
    marginTop: 10,
    marginLeft: 10,
    fontSize: 17,
    flex: 1,
  },
  priceText: {
    ...FONT_SEMI_BOLD,
    marginTop: 10,
    marginLeft: 10,
    marginRight: 10,
    fontSize: 17,
    alignSelf: 'flex-end',
    flex: 1,
  },
});

export default class CardDetailScreen extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <SafeAreaView>
        <HeaderReturn />
        <View style={styles.cardBorder}>
          <Image
            style={{ height: width, width: width }}
            source={{ uri: testData[0].uri }}
          />
          <View
            style={{
              flexDirection: 'row',
              justifyContent: "space-between",
            }}
          >
            <Text style={styles.titleText}>{testData[0].name}</Text>
            <Text style={styles.priceText}>{testData[0].price}</Text>
          </View>
        </View>
      </SafeAreaView>
    );
  }
}

Any help is much appreciated, it looks super simple but I just cannot get it to work. Thank you!

It seems like you want to show the name on left side and price on right side of view. So you can try it this way,

priceText: {
    ...FONT_SEMI_BOLD,
    marginTop: 10,
    marginLeft: 'auto',
    marginRight: 10,
    fontSize: 17,
},

Just mention your marginLeft: 'auto'. Also remove justifyContent: "space-between", from your parent view's style.

Try to set your styles.cardBorder to have alignItems: 'center' and 'width': '100%'. I think your texts are centered in its container fine, but the container is not taking the full width. Maybe you only need 'width': '100%'.
