This is actually Bug, because taken photo which is saved is mirrored

there is pretty simple to fixed this bug,,,

you should mirror back as result file.

first, you need to install flutter plugin called image_editor.

then, look at my takePhoto function.

_takePhoto() async {
    final Directory extDir = await getTemporaryDirectory();
    final testDir =
        await Directory('${extDir.path}/toko_kece/media').create(recursive: true);
    final String filePath = '${testDir.path}/toko_kece${DateTime.now().millisecondsSinceEpoch}.jpg';
    await _pictureController.takePicture(filePath);
    // lets just make our phone vibrate
    HapticFeedback.mediumImpact();

    setState(() {});
    print("----------------------------------");
    print("TAKE PHOTO CALLED");
    final file = File(filePath);
    print("==> hastakePhoto : ${file.exists()} | path : $filePath");
    print("----------------------------------");

    if (_sensor.value == Sensors.FRONT) {
      // 1. read the image from disk into memory
      Uint8List imageBytes = await file.readAsBytes();

      // 2. flip the image on the X axis
      final ImageEditorOption option = ImageEditorOption();
      option.addOption(FlipOption(horizontal: true));
      imageBytes = await ImageEditor.editImage(image: imageBytes, imageEditorOption: option);

      // 3. write the image back to disk
      await file.delete();
      final res = await file.writeAsBytes(imageBytes);
      Navigator.of(context).pop(res);
    } else {
      Navigator.of(context).pop(file);
    }
  }

and voila,

you can preview the image after you mirror back the result from camera.
