Alternative to Simple Gallery Pro in Flutter or React Native? (lemmy.nowsci.com)

Hi all,

I'm a big Simple Gallery Pro fan and I want to add some Nextcloud sync features, but honestly, I hate working with native Android Java/Kotlin (and would like to be able to support iOS in the future, just in case).

Does anyone know of a good Image Gallery App alternative that is FOSS and built in Flutter or RN?

Thanks.

This looks promising. I may contribute some more basic stuff to get a feel for it, like tap to copy file names, etc.

My main gripe is the UI/UX, especially all the "sliding." I don't see a place to turn all that off, which is sort of surprising (though I could just be missing it).

Edit: Found it, but only impacts swipes, and now the images have a "zoom" that happens after swiping to them. Hmm..

"Hmm" confirmed. A repo that doesn't accept PRs and responds to issue reports with things like this: https://github.com/deckerst/aves/issues/464#issuecomment-1510258567

Might not be going down this road. Feels a bit too much like TTRSS all over again.

aves doesn't have the endless loading times when you have lots of images
