The project aims to find a better solution for handling files uploaded from Talawa clients. It seeks to store files outside the code tree, access them using reliable libraries, deduplicate files, encrypt them, store them consistently regardless of their characteristics, and screen them for malicious content. Additionally, the default storage must be accessible via the system's locally accessible filesystem, with cloud storage services discouraged.
