looking for a good drag n drop upload plugin? need a beautiful UI and user friendly? well... after use some of them in my personal projects and jobs i want to share with you my favorite upload plugins.
Uppy
uppy has one good ui and useful resources to make upload very easy.
visit: https://uppy.io/
here's some of your features:
- open source
- lightweight, modular, plugin-based architecture, easy on dependencies
- resumable file uploads via the open tus standard
- Saves battery and data plan by letting users pick files from Webcam, Dropbox, Google Drive and Instagram, while letting servers do the heavy lifting via Companion
- Works great with the file encoding and processing backend from Transloadit, but also works great without
- File recovery (after a browser crash or accidental navigation) via Golden Retriever
- I18n
- Built with accessibility in mind
- Free forever
also, you can use it with react, vue or simple website! and obviously use module bundlers like: webpack or browserify.
you can install it by separate modules:
$ npm install @uppy/core @uppy/xhr-upload @uppy/dashboard
or all at once:
$ npm install uppy
then import it in your project:
import Uppy, { XHRUpload, DragDrop } from 'uppy'
