Hi!
I have a very specific small project need -- I need users to be able to upload their images (and possibly small videos) from their computers/mobile devices onto my server site, which is located on a remote server, to which I have full access. And me being able to contact the users who did the upload (so maybe some kind of user reg component will help).
I currently have 3 directions I can take:
Could you please help to gently direct me towards specific resources on how to do this most efficiently (in a developer-time sense)? I do not have at this moment much time to really get into reading the docs, but hoping to get a quick start on "Quickstart" and come back for more later.
Thanks!
The fastest would be probably php itself, but you need to be careful with security. Quick and dirty, but not the best options for future, if you want to extend your project.
If you want learn something new and you have time, a framework would be the best. When you have experience with zf use it, it's easier for you to get started.
The middle way would be laravel. It has a really low learning curve and you should be able to learn the basics for your specific project in a day. It shouldn't be a great deal.
If you have any questions to laravel, eg how to deal with uploads, just ask here. There are a lot of helpful people.
For a quick start you can use this starter kit https://github.com/brunogaspar/laravel4-starter-kit including user management, you will expand only for upload file
And laravel already handle file uploading with very easy http://laravel.com/docs/requests#files
