Uploadcare

Already using n8n? Automated document conversion is worth adding. Trust Jamin Okpukoro walks through building a workflow that converts DOCX to PDF, polls until the job finishes, then emails the CDN link. Uploadcare's Conversion API handles the heavy lifting. A ready-to-import workflow.json is included if you want to skip straight to testing. Full guide: https://lnkd.in/dYeTdkFg #n8n #WorkflowAutomation #DocumentConversion #Uploadcare #DeveloperTools

📢 📢 Happening today at 11:00 am EST | 5:00 pm CEST! Join Sezgin H. & Trust Jamin as they show you all the exciting new things at Uploadcare. They will walk through newly released capabilities designed to simplify file uploads, media optimization, and content delivery workflows for modern websites and apps.

We've been building. A lot. 4K resolution ladders. H.265 support. A CLI that fits into your terminal, your CI/CD pipeline, and your AI coding agent. Bring-your-own-storage with R2, GCS, and Azure. Your files stay in your cloud, Uploadcare handles the rest. This is our first live session with Trust Jamin & Sezgin H. to walk through all of it together: demos, real examples, and a Q&A at the end. If you're building on Uploadcare (or curious what's changed), this one's worth your hour. Register now: https://lnkd.in/gBxQQ_pq

Managing file ops from the terminal just got a lot cleaner. We put together a quick walkthrough of the Uploadcare CLI — what it does, how it fits into your workflow, and why your future self will thank you for ditching the scripts. Swipe through and grab the link in the comments to install it.

File uploads in React have always been messier than they should be. The new useActionState hook changes that. Trust Jamin Okpukoro walks through how to handle uploads cleanly, with Uploadcare taking care of storage, optimization, and delivery in the background. No pipeline to build. No infrastructure to babysit. Just a working upload flow, and more time to focus on the parts of your app that actually matter. Full tutorial: https://lnkd.in/dWJXQGdf

There's a moment in every React project where you realise the file upload field is going to be the hard part. Not the upload itself. The wiring. Talking to React act Hook Form, validating file type and size, handling the error path nobody writes tutorials about. Trust Jamin Okpukoro just published the version we wished existed: https://lnkd.in/dWTWQ4b5

Image cropping is one of those things that looks trivial in week one. Then you're generating thumbnails for six device sizes, the bill creeps up, and someone asks where it's all going. A lot depends on where the cropping actually runs. In the browser, on your server, or at the CDN. So does whether the tool can crop around a face without you writing the logic, and how it deals with AVIF or WebP. We lined up the seven main alternatives and worked out which one fits which job, alongside our own approach: Cropper.js, react-easy-crop, Pintura, Sharp, ImageMagick, Thumbor,Cloudinary. https://lnkd.in/dyMs_ADj

The dashboard works great until you've got 10,000 files to deal with. That's roughly where the Uploadcare CLI earns its keep. It's a Go binary you install with one curl command, and from there you can upload, list, audit, or bulk-delete files straight from your shell. You can even pipe a text file of IDs in and preview a cleanup with a dry-run flag before anything actually deletes. The one feature worth flagging for anyone building with agents: a single command returns the full command surface as machine-readable JSON, so an LLM can generate valid calls instead of fumbling through help output. Short video walkthrough below — install, auth, first upload, dry-run delete. #WebDev #CICD #DevTools

The Uploadcare CLI is live. 🔥 The Complete Upload & Delivery Platform. Uploads, conversions, webhooks, metadata, and add-ons, all scriptable from your terminal. One binary. Linux, macOS, Windows. Built for CI/CD pipelines and AI agents. We wrote up how it works, including a two-command cleanup pipeline that handles thousands of files safely.

Three things go wrong when your upload form accepts anything: → Users upload the wrong format and your pipeline breaks downstream → Storage fills with files your app can't process → Security review flags it before launch Uploadcare's File Uploader handles this with the accept parameter. Define your allowed MIME types once, and the file picker only shows matching files. For belt-and-braces, the REST API validates server-side too.
