I Fixed File Uploading.

We were tired of AWS's offerings with S3, and we weren't satisfied by what Cloudflare offered with R2 or even Vercel's Blob offering. I think we have something special here.

Mate, you've got something special here. I really hope it flourishes; in the meantime, imma press F to pay my respects to your wallet while you figure the numbers out.

You're amazing man. Can't tell you how much I appreciate the content you make. Not only are you helping people out of the Junior Dev world, but you're building amazing tools. Keep doing you Theo. ❤

Pretty amazing, congrats!! I suggest implementing an access control layer on this. it's very convenient to see what was uploaded directly from the website, however, all uploads from all users will be open to everyone who has access to this dashboard. If you are a small to mid size start-up, "who accessed to what" should be auditable by the company and devs using the dashboard should provide a business reason if they need to access an upload. you don't want your devs to browse through user uploads just because they can. Sane privacy defaults will make a huge difference, because I assume this product might become a favorite for lots of upcoming start-ups.

Great timing! i was recently finding a service that make it easy to upload and store files. I found imagekit last week but after announcement of UploadThing, Im surely gonna use it.

In terms of upload state management and, of course, typesafety, this will greatly improve DX for all kind of projects, and I'm so excited to try this out!

It'd be also great to have some real-time state tracking during the upload phase, for instance, the % and ETA of uploaded file. Also the feature of upload recovery after connection reset would be really handy!

That's just SUPERB. WONDERFUL. Amazingly AWESOME. Dude, I'm gonna use it right now to make my photography blog. I hope you figure the numbers out soon tho

Thanks for using your platform and expertise to help so many devs out. As a junior dev myself I’m still trying to figure everything out. And so far your channel has been incredibly useful.

[LaviGaming]

I wonder if it makes sense to add a plugin/provider architecture here where you can choose what backend you want to actually store your data whether it's S3, your own hosted server, etc.

[pedroalonsoms]

Congrats for launching this product! Hope you do well 🎉

[yzz]

this is wild, was just getting to implementing user uploads! been using your stack as well theo, best dev experience i've had

[crowlsyong]

I friggin love what you are doin right now with this and with t3. amazing.

[ChristopherFlodin]

Love this kind of product marketing when it's just 100% authentic "we made something awesome, you could probably benefit from this". I'm very excited to use this once it gets out, keep it up Theo and team! ❤

[TJMcCarty]

This really is awesome! I just spent 4 hours setting up AWS S3 and realized I wasn't close to being finished. I was able to get uploadthing to work within 45 minutes.

Hey Theo, thanks four your amazing job and content as always.

It would be great if, instead of redirecting to your documentation page in the same tab, you could open a new tab. This way, users wouldn't have to go back to the panel if they need to access the documentation for some reason.

Wish you the best!

[VincentUchennaOk]

Man, you are good at what you do! Kudos!!

[Pscribbled]

Very cool product. I think I’ll try it out! Although as primarily a backend engineer, I’m a bit nervous of how the code is collocated in builder of that file router. Feels dangerous to the uninformed… like myself

[lilililliilil]

Thanks for a great invention Theo! I just wonder does it support any kind of caching methods? Cloudfront integration maybe?

[palyanytsia]

That would be super handy, not only for my pet projects, but client apps as well, thank you so much!

[moishinetzer]

Theo I've got to hand it to you - on the day of Vercel blob announcement, BOLD 🔥

[thundrdv]

THANKS, I was just looking for this you are great!!
