multer VS imagekit-vuejs

Some basic examples of popular packages in the Javascript community include Express (a framework for building server applications) and Multer (a middleware for handling file uploads). These packages, when integrated into your project, can significantly streamline your development process.

Here are the docs for multer

You could use multipart/form-data https://github.com/expressjs/multer

multer - Middleware for Express.js to handle file uploads

busboy is what many Express middleware's such as multer use under the hood.

Maybe multer or validate-image-type?

Multer has some functions used to determine what type of file(s) to expect from the API request. Here we have used the 'multer.single("file")' function to let multer know that we're expecting a single file. (The full multer documentation can be found here).

You need something that can parse formData stuff. Like multer https://github.com/expressjs/multer

Having the server decide the image format based on the accept header is simpler. Services like https://imagekit.io/ (no affiliation) can do that for you.

Hosting wise, I would reccomend pythonanywhere.com, combined with either https://imagekit.io or https://cloudinary.com

Use any third-party service to store images like Cloudinary , imagekit etc... And store image URLs in your database. If you have fewer images you keep image URLs directly in your APIs

We'll be using Multer to handle file uploads on our server and imagekit will do all our media heavy lifting. I chose these tools because I just found them easier to use and the latter has a very elaborate documentation (and a free tier too 😋).

Angular now provides popular Image Loader configurations out of the box. In our e-commerce application example, we set up ImageKit with the provideImageKitLoader function, whose path argument is the default URL endpoint for an account.

I use imagekit.io since it's cheaper than the alternatives like Cloudinary and Imgix, lots of options in that space though.

imagekit.io ♥

I'm using imagekit.io to resize my images and the custom loader they provided.

The above links are created using the ImageKit.io CDN. They have a very good free plan to try out and get started with: 20 GB bandwidth & 20 GB media storage. They also integrate with many web platforms. See the screenshot below:

Well, using imagekit and a bit of JS, you can accomplish just that. Our goal will be to use imagekit's on-the-fly resizing capabilities to resize all the images used on our website before they are served to the final user.
