Background
It's always been easy to implement the backend solution around uploading a file then referencing said file in a model. The previous go-to solution was Paperclip. Unfortunately this was discontinued in favor of Rails' own built-in ActiveStorage. **The problem with ActiveStorage** ActiveStorage looks like a good evolution of Paperclip. It even makes it easier to configure the different storage options in 1 file. The biggest downside? It has no built-in validations. An open Rails issue #33741 tackles this by introducing a new gem on top, activestoragevalidations. **Solution** We recommended using CarrierWave until this is sorted out by the Rails core team. You can also contribute in the issue link above.
