Introduction

Larupload is a file uploader for Laravel, which is based on ORM and allows users to upload images, videos, audios, and other known file formats.

With Larupload, you can easily upload your files, and it comes with interesting features for uploading videos, audios, and images.

One of the main advantages of using Larupload is that it leverages the Laravel filesystem. As a result, it is easy to switch between different drivers such as Local, SFTP, S3, and many others.

It offers many useful features, including the ability to resize, crop, and optimize uploaded images, as well as manipulate uploaded videos by resizing and cropping them, and creating HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) content from uploaded videos.
