I would like to use a frontend to upload images to SPK network. This seems like the most common use case. What is needed for frontends to be able to offer this feature?

We have spk-js that has been built with this in mind, so any front end can be able to upload and view files with little effort.

You can do this now at dlux.io drive section. (Though it's not running on spk-js yet)

Great. So can frontends implement this now?

We are trying to implement it into 3Speak with little success so far. Im sure Disregard will help @kesolink to make something of this in the new release, but as of yet, we aren't able to implement it

I would love to get this project into GA! That what this proposal is for.
I will not be engaging in unpaid, platform specific work though. If you'd like to bring this project to fruition and integration, I'd recommend re-blogging this post, voting for and advocating for this proposal.

This comment probably is an accurate reflection of how the community feels. Hope we can find a way to progress

The reply to that comment demonstrates the feature. We have demonstrable features covering the White Paper and half the phase 2 work as well.

You were the PM for this project, my last update doesn't have your vote, reblog, or engagement, that trend continues. If the community doesn't understand where we are that is on you. I'm here pushing for completion, doing the community outreach, trying to secure funding, AND have written a tremendous amount of code... and the major opposition appears to be you.

SPKs codebase is larger than Hive - 75494, with Hive-js - 18037, and HAF - 163003 ( 256,534 Lines - Methodology git ls-files | xargs wc -l) in size... Yes, it took awhile.

If the community wants further progress, they can vote for it... If not I'll have to find another way to pay the bills.
