## What it is
CollectionFS is a suite of Meteor packages providing a reactive file management solution for uploading, downloading, storing, synchronizing, and manipulating files. It supports multiple storage adapters including the local filesystem, MongoDB GridFS, and Amazon S3.

## Use cases
- upload files in a meteor app
- store uploaded images on s3
- serve user avatars with reactive urls
- resize and manipulate uploaded images
- store files in mongodb gridfs
- filter uploads by file type or size

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy Meteor 1.x app already using CollectionFS
- you need reactive file uploads tightly integrated with Meteor's tracker system

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new Meteor project - use Meteor-Files instead
- you are not using the Meteor framework
- you need actively maintained software with security fixes
