Meteor Files is designed to withstand intermediate internet interruptions, power cutoffs, browser crashes, and system failures. In the event of an internet disconnection, the upload process will resume as soon as the connection is restored. If the software crashes or hardware fails, the upload will continue as soon as the app has been reopened. Moreover, the user has the option to resume the upload process from another device!

Over the past nine years, I have been working on developing and maintaining the most popular file-upload library for Meteor.js. This library is used by thousands of developers across hundreds of projects globally. Through this experience, I have gained extensive knowledge about file uploads and distribution.

Fo the long time I was incubating this idea for a new file upload service unlike anything currently available. My goal has been to create the most reliable, resilient, and durable file upload and sharing service on the market, with features that are not present in any of the existing competitors.

I’ve been lucky enough to work in the media production industry and see from the inside how often employees struggle and have to wait longer hours for source files to get to 100% before they can call it a day. That’s why one of the first features I wanted to deliver is the ability to resume the same file upload from a different device as long as the original file remains in the user’s possession, like on a hard drive or USB thumb.
