Launched my first web project on PH

Hi Indie Hackers 👋

I work as a full-time iOS Developer, but I've always been interested in the new technologies/libraries/frameworks that the web has. I decided to make my first web project as a solution to a problem I was having a work, which was to transfer couple files and folders (~ 300MB) multiple times to another computer at the office. I couldn't use Dropbox on that machine and I didn't want to use up the Slack storage space for it either.

There probably exists multiple other apps that can solve this, but I wanted to make my own because I thought it's a simple enough concept that would be good for learning the web technologies I wanted.

I started working on this project about 2-3 months ago and used the following tech stack:
Vue, Typescript, Node, Parcel-Bundler, AWS Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, Azure Storage, Netlify

The product I ended up making was ShareFiles and it had the following features:

• Drag n' Drop files/folders
• Files automatically zipped to conserve space and to speed up the process
• See all files and their respective sizes before uploading/downloading
• Links and files deleted automatically after 24 hours
• Links Management
• No file size limit (theoretically)
• No Registration
• Free

I published the project last Thursday on PH and while it didn't do great, I loved working on this project and I learned a lot of things so I'm pretty happy with it 😃
