🎉 Usage Example

Add an import to the top of the file. At minimal, declare the GallerySwiper component in the render() method providing an array of data for the images prop.

ℹ️ Local images must have a defined `dimensions` field with `width` and `height` or just `height` and `width`.

import GallerySwiper from "react-native-gallery-swiper";

//...
render() {
    return (
        <GallerySwiper

                // Can be used with different image object fieldnames.
