On The Fly Image Transformation
Quick Start

Getting set up with SlashedCloud is easy - just tell us where your assets live, set some basic defaults, and you can start serving assets through our Rendering API in minutes.

The quick-start instructions are below, and if you have a more complex integration, you can head directly to Source setup for the advanced details like cache TTL, default parameters, and custom domains. For recommendations about setting up your assets before integrating with SlashedCloud, see the Setting Up Asset Storage guide.
