title: Node.js Contribution to Heroku's Dev Center
description: "Contributing another article to the Heroku Dev Center"

I recently wrote a new article for Heroku's Dev Center on carrying out asynchronous direct-to-S3 uploads using Node.js.

he article is based heavily on the previous [Python version](/blog/13/5/7/contribution-to-heroku-dev-center/), where the only major change is the method for signing the AWS request. This method was outlined in an [earlier blog post](/blog/2014/1/17/direct-to-s3-uploads-in-node.js).

The article is available [here](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/s3-upload-node) and there is also a [companion code repository](https://github.com/willwebberley/NodeDirectUploader) for the example it describes.
