react-native-image-picker VS react-navigation

Hi, I'm using the [react-native-image-picker](https://github.com/react-native-image-picker/react-native-image-picker) library to pick images from the gallery it works really fine.

I'm going to be getting images from the user (using react-native-image-picker) saving them in Firebase Cloud Storage.

Image Picker is a javascript library for react native that provides two methods one for taking image from camera and other from gallery. For using library first install react-native-image-picker in the project directory:

you can see the source code here.

here is the documentation for the library: https://github.com/react-native-image-picker/react-native-image-picker

It's simple Java and Objective-C code. Eq. https://github.com/react-native-image-picker/react-native-image-picker/blob/main/android/src/main/java/com/imagepicker/ImagePickerModule.java here is the roughly 200 lines` file. You can build it on your own, however, you need to remember that native code will be needed as you need to retrieve files from the device and it's unreachable from JS code. You need to consider all permissions, especially in iOS.

Agreed. Currently I'm using react-native-image-picker. However I can't mimic this exact behavior with it. So I'm bothered whether I have to develop native modules for this.

UPDATE: Looks like I'm not the only one https://github.com/react-navigation/react-navigation/issues/10988

Does this work on @react-navigation/native-stack or only @react-navigation/stack ? I know you said

React Navigation

you're more than likely going to need https://reactnavigation.org/ for pages and tabs/bottom nav.

Wow, that's A LOT, but when You do a simple setup does it just work when You just follow the reactnavigation.org docs procedure? because when I do I, First I get the error, node modules not found then after restarting my PC I get these error: FAILURE: Build completed with 2 failures. 1: Task failed with an exception. ----------- * Where: Build file 'C:\Users\user\Documents\WORK\ENGINEERING\PROJECTS\REACT NATIVE PROJE CTS\1LEARNING\Nav1\node_modules\react-native-screens\android\build.gradle' line: 33 This is what I have on line 33: apply plugin: 'kotlin-android' * What went wrong: A problem occurred evaluating project ':react-native-screens'. > Could not initialize class org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.plugin.KotlinGradleBuil dServices * Try: > Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. > Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.
