What is it?

tusd is the official reference server for the tus resumable upload protocol. The protocol lets clients upload files over plain HTTP and pause or resume at any point, so an upload interrupted by a network drop or server outage continues without re-sending data already received.

The server accepts uploads of arbitrary size and stores them on local disk, Google Cloud Storage, or AWS S3 and other S3-compatible systems. Its storage and hook handling are modular, so additional storage backends can be added.

The project is written in Go and targets developers who need reliable large-file uploads from browsers or mobile clients. The full guides for installing and configuring tusd are hosted on its documentation website.
