Building Cloud Store: Solving Storage Limitations with React.js and Django

I’m currently working on a project called “cloud store”

I got the idea from the problem I had concerning insufficient storage on my device.

To solve this problem, I built a storage system that allows you to save files securely in the cloud, access them from any device and manage them effortlessly.

Right now, I am working on adding file sharing and collaboration features to enhance user experience.

Key features include: authentication, file uploads, the ability to download saved files, and support for both dark mode and light mode.

One of the biggest challenges I faced was optimizing file uploads. At first uploading a file that is as small as 2kb took minutes, which was not user friendly. But I tackled the issue with the help of cloudinary.

I’d love to hear your thoughts! What’s the most important feature you’d want in a cloud storage solution? Let’s discuss in the comments! 👇
