This is how I like to do image uploads on my full stack apps 

I have always been wondering what the process of uploading images via presigned url looks like, this has helped me understand the logic behind it. Thank you for the video!

The only problem with uploading directly to S3 is you can't validate the file type of what's being sent. S3 just checks if your sending the correct headers, but the actual file type of the file is not being checked.

This works but what happens when the client is facing some connectivity issues and the upload fails?? I see you’re saving the object id in your DB before sending back the postpresigned url

how do you compress images of different sizes to a "standard" size of about 50KB for fast loads?

Try more mr beast style thumbnails with more surprise faces

Why don't we do this directly on AWS? Easier, right? Create an endpoint with Api Gateway and connect to the lambda function. The Lambda function then distributes the files to the S3 bucket. It's really easier than your method.

I created an image upload component but it doesn’t upload image files from mobile devices like iOS properly. What can I do to make sure iOS images are being uploaded properly?

If I may be so bold as to suggest a different font for your thumbnails; the current one is very comic sans, which is very triggering for many lol.

Do you think using vercel storage for personal projects built with nextjs is a good choice ? Having everything in one place seems good and safe for me like deploying, db, file uploading etc.. What do you think?

Good timing, I was about to do something similar with S3 today (which I have never user before) so this has helped!

Going back to this vid because I remember you mocking S3 locally, thanks!. I tried localstack---it removes the files when the docker container stops. Kinda wasted my time there.

Hi Cody, One thing I'm wondering about is image compression. I'm wanting to build something like a photo album where users can store potentially hundreds of photos. For this kind of thing, wouldn't I want to put some kind of API between the upload button and the S3 bucket to compress the image files before storing them in the S3 bucket? That way the app/website would be receiving compressed images when I fetch them from the database?

What do you think of using public s3 bucket for image uploads?

Hey I asked this question in your last livestream and you made a video of it. Even though it might not be the main reason, ill still say this. Thanks a lot! :D

what's your vs code theme its really cool

why 99% of devs use AWS even they say they have a horrible experience with it have you ever tried something like Google cloud storage or whatever ?

Hi, i wonder how you get this quality with macbook in 1080p. I am using 2019 macbook pro but when i try to record a video in 1080p the quality become very low. I am using OBS to record videos.

Hey Cody , great video , if possible could you sometime show us a video on how we can set up a dev database within our t3 stack so we can work on adding new features without effecting prod data ?

Hello, if I may ask, what would it cost to host a vidoe course website? how much would it cost? say it can support like 1000 concurrent users all watching videos

Thought you will be showing us Theo's uploadthing package

web Dev Cody have you heard of uploadthing by theo

cloudinary?

This is super helpful, thanks.

Banger video as always Cody!!

Good insight, thank you

great stuff thanks!

Exactly what I needed

God sent 👏👏👏

Babe. When can we expect a Laravel TALL stack tutorial? ❤

What is the name of that vscode theme?

I love you! Keep it up babe ❤

but why you are uploading files from the client is not better to just upload it from the server ? and I believe file uploading to S3 from the server doesn't cost that much It won't make that problem if you will need it to upgrade ur server it's most likely cuz of another thing isn't it ?

Very useful, if you dont mind can you make a video that show the screen sharing functionality. I been doing a discord clone app and havent figure that out yet thx.
