Our great sponsors
  • SurveyJS - Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • multer

    Node.js middleware for handling `multipart/form-data`.

  • 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).

  • imagekit-vuejs

    Vue.js SDK for ImageKit.io

  • 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 😋).

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc.
