GraphQL and File Uploads
Uploading files using a library built to support multi-part form through graphQL. Although this is pretty straightforward, it's not necessarily perfect as it is a privately maintained gem and doing uploads this way puts a lot of load on your server. https://github.com/jetruby/apollo_upload_server-ruby. This gem was built to mimic the file upload functionality of Apollo Server which is the popular Apollo server framework for node. This is likely the easiest solution to implement.
