Other than what u/loradan said, there is Sharp that I've used before in a cloud function. It might be heavyweight for your purposes, since it does a lot more than just image resizing, but it can still do exactly what you'd want.

Regarding a cropping tool, this could be done using a plugin and a custom component. However, I would support putting a feature like that into the core. We already use sharp internally and crop with a default cropping of center. If you'd like to, I'd say head over to our GitHub Discussions and submit a feature request, and we can hash out some details there.

Lambda Layer is a true gem in the Lambda function realm. It provides a convenient way to package your libraries and other dependencies that can be used with the Lambda functions. Our open-source project, Webiny which has 50k+ downloads and 5.5k stars on GitHub uses Lambda layers. It helps us reduce our Lambda function size by 12 MB and enable us to share the image processing library sharp across all the Webiny deployments.

The Alliance for Open Media's AVIF encoding and decoding library is also in a Github repo. Sharp, a Node module, has AVIF support. To make AVIF images, you can use avif.io, Squoosh, and the Squoosh command line tool aimed at supporting Node.js apps. GIMP and Paint.net support AVIF and there are Photoshop plugins. Mac has no plans to support AVIF, but you can easily install a codec plugin on Windows 10 for native support.

multer creates the folder public/uploads but does not place the image in the location. How can I get the photo because I need to run it through sharp (to compress the filesize and resize the image) and then place it in the uploads folder?

First, we created a standard express app using TypeScript (nothing special here). Then we pulled in this extremely useful package called express-sharp that wraps sharp, a Node.js image manipulation library, in an express middleware.
