React Native – Implementing Image Cropping and Adjustment in a Form

I am currently working on a React Native project and am facing a challenge in implementing a specific functionality within a form. The requirement is to include an Image section where users can upload an image.

My goal is to allow users to not only upload the image but also have the ability to drag and adjust the image within a specified frame. After adjusting, the user should be able to crop the image accordingly and then upload it to the server, preserving the adjustments made.

I have researched several packages, but many of them seem to redirect to a new view, which is not the behavior I am looking for. Is there any recommended package or combination of packages that can facilitate this drag-adjust-crop functionality without redirecting to a new view?

I’m specifically looking for a solution similar to react-native-photo-cropper, but I haven’t utilized it due to several reported issues with the user experience. If anyone has successfully implemented a similar feature or has alternative suggestions, I would greatly appreciate your insights.

Additionally, if you have any code snippets, examples, or best practices related to this requirement, it would be highly appreciated. I want to ensure that the user experience is seamless, and the uploaded images are accurately adjusted and cropped according to the user’s preferences.
