What is the best way for upload image and video?

Hi,

I'm coding an application similar Instagram and it's important for me to images and videos upload streamlined and optimized.

I read and search a little, the best way I found was 'intervention/image' library, but I feel there is a better way or there is a better library that is specially for uploading photos, videos and files that I do not know it.

Is there someone to help me?

Best regards <3

I don't know a good library for video, but for an image, you can use this i think: https://itsolutionstuff.com/post/laravel-5-ajax-crop-image-before-upload-using-using-croppie-pluginexample.html

I hope it can help you...

For Controller

public function upload(Request $request)
    {

        if(Request::hasFile('file')){

            $file = Request::file('file');
            $filename = $file->getClientOriginalName();
            $path = public_path().'/uploads/';
            return $file->move($path, $filename);
        }

For Images and videos php.ini files contains some limits that might affect this.


upload_max_filesize = 10M
post_max_size = 10M
memory_limit = 32M
