# tusd - Let's fix file uploading # tusd
It's 2013, and adding reliable file uploading to your app is still too damn tusd is the official reference implementation of the [tus resumable upload
hard. tus is an open source project dedicated to create the best file uploading protocol](http://www.tus.io/protocols/resumable-upload.html).
protocol, server and clients.
Sounds interesting? Get notified when it's ready: http://tus.io/ This means it is meant for client authors to verify their implementations as
well as server authors who may look at it for inspiration.
## Roadmap In the future tusd may be extended with additional functionality to make it
suitable as a standalone production upload server, but for now this is not a
priority.
The initial goal for this project to come up with a good and simple solution **Protocol version:** 0.1 (upgrade to 0.2 will be ready soon)
for resumable file uploads over http.
* Defining a good http API (first proposal created)
* Implementing a minimal and robust server for it (in progress)
* Creating an HTML5 client (in progress, proof of concept working)
* Setting up an online demo (done)
* Integrating Amazon S3 for storage
* Creating an iOS client
Future features will be based on [your
feedback](https://github.com/tus/tusd/issues/new). A few potential ideas:
* Alternative transfer mechanisms: FTP, UDP, E-Mail, etc.
* Security: Authentication Tokens, HTTPS, etc.
* Support for running tusd instances in a geographically distributed cluster
(reverse CDN)
* Alternative storage backends: Cloud Files, Dropbox, etc.
* More clients: Android, PhoneGap, etc.
* Service integrations: Transloadit, Zencoder, Encoding.com, Youtube, Vimeo, Facebook, AWS
Transcoder, etc.
* File meta data analysis
* Thumbnail generation
Once the project matures, we hope to offer a hosted service and support
contracts. However, all code will continue to be released as open source, and
you'll always be able to run your own deployments easily. There will be no bait
and switch.
