Description

Currently the user has to

  • convert .pptx to .pdf
  • upload the .pdf to CDN
  • Put link in /create page

It would be a lot cooler if we could have upload PPT button in /create page and everything else is handled out of the box.

To make things easier, first we can have upload PDF button and upload to cloudinary (or any other CDN) and later figure out PPT to PDF conversion.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a file upload button on the /create page that sends the user's PDF to Cloudinary (or similar CDN) and stores the returned URL in the form. Start by adding a simple upload component and integrate the Cloudinary API; later extend to PPT to PDF conversion if needed.
