What it does

tus.io is a project that develops a protocol and implementations for faster and more reliable file uploads. While invented & funded by https://www.producthunt.com/posts/transloadit, it is owned by the community. Implementations are available in all major programming languages, and all licensed under MIT.

tus is the open protocol standard for resumable and reliable file uploads across the web, facilitating efficient and seamless file transfer experiences.

We stand with the brave people of Ukraine. Stop the war. Find out how you can help . People are sharing more and more photos and videos every day, but mobile networks remain fragile. Platform APIs are often a mess and every project builds its own file uploader. There are a thousand one-week projects that barely work, when all we need is one real project. One project done right. We are going to do this right. Our aim is to make file uploads reliable once and for all. tus is a new, open protocol for resumable uploads built on HTTP. It offers simple, cheap and reusable stacks for clients and servers. It supports any language, any platform and any network. It may seem to be an impossible dream.…from tus.io
