activestorage

I took an early peek at the new Active Storage project in Rails 5.2. It is a built-in solution to handling uploads, something that is all to common in web applications. Also something that is covered by quite a few gems, CarrierWave, PaperClip and Refile for example. These are just the ones I know off the top of my head. At times I have also handled uploads without gems, it’s not that difficult and didn’t warrant the inclusion of another gem for those projects. »
