Filepicker.io October releases + community updates

We have been busy this October talking to users and writing code. So we took a step back and decided to consolidate all the resources & tools that we released. These may help you integrate with Filepicker.io faster. Shoot us a note at contact at filestack.com if you have questions or comments.

Also, we wanted to share with you some awesome wrappers and extensions for Filepicker.io that the community built. Special thanks to Travis Glines, John Mertic, François Stephany, Adam Burmister, Ken Erickson.

And if you in a part of the world that celebrates Halloween…Happy Halloween from all of us at Filepicker.io!
