The Function Call

41 - A deep dive into file uploads

Listen Later

In this episode, we talked about a deep-dive series Austin has been working on, all about file uploads. We looked at file uploads in HTML and JS. Then moved into the backend with Node.js. We discussed `multipart/form-data`, "Chunks", "Buffers", and "Streams". After that, we discussed where to store files like Object Storage and S3. And briefly discussed deliver and security with a CDN.
