Javascript implementationįirst of all I want to show you how to implement Filestack with plain Javascript.Ĭonst button = document.querySelector( '.

Now on frontend we simply need to call this modal, we get different providers like Facebook, Instagram, Dropbox, Google Drive our of the box, we don't need to do anything with backend and all files are stored directly in CDN of Filestack.Īdditionally during upload we can crop, rotate or make a circle of the photo. The main idea of this service is that you simply write several lines of code and you can upload your files directly there. It is not a free service but it has a free tier so it may be sufficient for small projects. We can use an additional service which is called Filestack. Secondly we must implement backend part which will save all our files into the disk, implement API to provide this files from frontend and write information about this files to database.Īt some point we might want to move all our files to CDN to make it easier for our server and to deliver files faster.Īlso additionally you might want to implement different providers to upload files like Instagram, Dropbox or Facebook.Īs you can see there are lots of steps and if you don't have enought knowledge how to do all them correctly it is not an easy task.
