package.json

   "dependencies": {
    "feather-icons-react": "^0.3.0",
    "react": "16.6.3",
     "react-native": "0.57.8",
     "react-native-elements": "^1.0.0-beta7",

     "react-native-vector-icons": "^4.6.0",
      "react-navigation": "^3.0.9"
      },

I wished to appear icons but doesn't appear at all.

Answer 1

It's because there's no icon named "menu" in font-awesome.

you can check the icons in https://oblador.github.io/react-native-vector-icons/
