Are there any specific PHP libraries or resources recommended for handling image manipulation and galleries effectively?

When handling image manipulation and galleries in PHP, it is recommended to use libraries like GD or Imagick for image processing tasks such as resizing, cropping, and watermarking. Additionally, using a library like Lightbox or Slick for galleries can help create a visually appealing display of images on a website. 

// Example code using GD library for resizing an image
$image = imagecreatefromjpeg('image.jpg');
$width = imagesx($image);
$height = imagesy($image);
$newWidth = 200;
$newHeight = ($height / $width) * $newWidth;
$newImage = imagecreatetruecolor($newWidth, $newHeight);
imagecopyresampled($newImage, $image, 0, 0, 0, 0, $newWidth, $newHeight, $width, $height);
imagejpeg($newImage, 'resized_image.jpg');
imagedestroy($image);
imagedestroy($newImage);
