Introduction

This project demonstrates how to use the Cloudinary React SDK to create a photo album app.

The sample project showcases the following functionality:

• Using the Upload Widget to upload images to your product environment
• Using the REST API to upload images to your product environment
• Transforming and displaying images

Setup

Create an unsigned upload preset in your Cloudinary product environment and make a note of the name of the unsigned upload preset as well as your Cloudinary cloud name.

Create a .env file with the following content at the root of the project:

VITE_CLOUD_NAME='YOUR-CLOUD-NAME'
VITE_UPLOAD_PRESET='YOUR-UNSIGNED-UPLOAD-PRESET'

Run

From your terminal, in the root folder of your project, run:

• npm i
• npm run dev

Then, click the localhost link to open the app in your browser, or open a browser and navigate to localhost:5173 or to the port displayed in the terminal.

Try uploading images using each of the upload tabs, then see your images displayed in the Photo Album tab.
