        What are some alternatives to Filestack, Paperclip, and Uploadcare?
        Cloudinary

        CarrierWave
        This gem provides a simple and extremely flexible way to upload files from Ruby applications. It works well with Rack based web applications, such as Ruby on Rails.
        Uppy
        Uppy is a sleek modular file uploader for web browsers. Add it to your app with one line of code, or build a custom version with just the plugins you need via Webpack/Browserify. 100% open source, backed by a company (Transloadit).

        Transloadit handles file uploading & file processing for your websites and mobile apps. We can process video, audio, images and documents.
        Shrine
        Shrine implements a plugin system analogous to Roda’s and Sequel’s. Shrine ships with over 25 plugins, which together provide a great arsenal of features. Where CarrierWave and other file upload libraries favor complex class-level DSLs, Shrine favours simple instance-level interface.
