Getting 'Text strings must be rendered within a compon

Hi! I've just started learning React Native and have some experience with MDB, so I wanted to test out how MDB works with React Native (Expo for me). I know that MDB is not intended to work like this, I just want to know if there is something I can do about this or just have to give up.

So I have copied code from here (the very first one) - imported everything necessary (oh and MDBNavbarToggler was missing from imports in that preview code in docs). After fixing everything I could detect, I run it and got like 7 errors, all of them were the same (as I'm looking at it, it looks like even though there are a lot of the same errors, all of them are only pointing to <a> tag - according to callstack):

Error: Text strings must be rendered within a <Text> component.

Expected behavior It'll just show what is in preview in the docs, without any errors and the same - although since I'm doing this via React Native, I have low hopes...

Actual behavior I got a bunch of errors, while all of them are

Error: Text strings must be rendered within a <Text> component.

And in between them, there is just one

Invariant Violation: View config getter callback for component `i` must be a function (received `undefined`). Make sure to start component names with a capital letter.

(just letting know, I don't want to discuss this error here)
