How to use

Create a VSMediaPicker() widget:

Material(
    child: VSMediaPicker(
        /// required params
        pathList: (path) { /// => (type List<PickedAssetModel>) return a list map with selected media metadata
          /// returned data model
          //PickedAssetModel(
          //   'id': String,
          //   'path': String,
          //   'type': String,
          //   'videoDuration': Duration,
          //   'createDateTime': DateTime,
          //   'latitude': double,
          //   'longitude': double,
          //   'thumbnail': Uint8List,
          //   'height': double,
          //   'width': double,
          //   'orientationHeight': int,
          //   'orientationWidth': int,
          //   'orientationSize': Size,
          //   'file': Future<File>,
          //   'modifiedDateTime': DateTime,
          //   'title': String,
          //   'size': Size,
          // )
        }, 
        
        /// optional params
        maxPickImages: , /// (type int)
        singlePick: , /// (type bool)
        appBarColor: , /// (type Color)
        albumBackGroundColor: , /// (type Color)
        albumDividerColor: , /// (type Color)
        albumTextColor: , /// (type Color)
        appBarIconColor, /// (type Color)
        appBarTextColor: , /// (type Color)
        crossAxisCount, /// /// (type int)
        gridViewBackgroundColor: , /// (type Color)
        childAspectRatio, /// (type double)
        appBarLeadingWidget, /// (type Widget)
        appBarHeight: , /// (type double)
        imageBackgroundColor: , /// (type Color)
        gridPadding: /// (type EdgeInset)
        gridViewControlle:, /// (type ScrollController)
        gridViewPhysics: /// (type ScrollPhysics)
        selectedBackgroundColor: /// (type Color)
        selectedCheckColor: , /// (type Color)
        thumbnailBoxFix: , /// (type BoxFit)
        selectedCheckBackgroundColor: , /// (type Color)
        onlyImages: , /// (type bool)
        onlyVideos: , /// (type bool)

)
    );

Example

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:vs_media_picker/vs_media_picker.dart';

void main() => runApp(const Example());

class Example extends StatelessWidget {
  const Example({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Material(
        child: VSMediaPicker(
            pathList: (pathList){}
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

if you can use only cover thumbnail use this code line:

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:vs_media_picker/vs_media_picker.dart';

void main() => runApp(const Example());

class Example extends StatelessWidget {
  const Example({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      home: Material(
        color: Colors.black,
        child: Stack(
            children: [
              Padding(
                  padding: const EdgeInsets.all(15),

                                  ),
                                  borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(10)

                                /// this is the line to show the first image on gallery
                                child: const CoverThumbnail(
                                    thumbnailQuality: 200,
                                    thumbnailFit: BoxFit.cover
                                ),
                              )
                          )
                      ),
                      const Padding(
                        padding: EdgeInsets.only(left: 15,bottom: 50),
                        child: Align(
                          alignment: Alignment.bottomCenter,
                          child: Text(
                            'Only show the first image on gallery',
                            style: TextStyle(
                                color: Colors.white,
                                fontSize: 10
                            ),
                          ),
                        ),
                      )
