# Filesystem Uploads and URLs

Use the Storage facade consistently; abstract away the backend (local, S3, etc.).

## Commands

```
$path = Storage::disk('public')->putFile('avatars', $request->file('avatar'));

// Temporary URLs (S3, etc.)
$url = Storage::disk('s3')->temporaryUrl($path, now()->addMinutes(10));

// Streams
return Storage::disk('backups')->download('db.sql.gz');
```

## Patterns

- Keep user uploads under a dedicated disk with explicit `visibility`
- Avoid assuming local paths; always go through Storage
- For public assets, run `storage:link` and serve via web server / CDN
- Validate mime/types and size limits at upload boundaries
