I recently built a similar plugin [1] inspired by a bug report I had to resolve at work. Back then I had hard time trying to find a good open source solution and this one here is nearly perfect. It's a little bit sad I didn't see it coming earlier.

Thanks for sharing Tridi! I found it very easy to use and I liked the fact I could dump my images into a local folder and be done. With js-cloudimage-360-view, I first had to create an account on cloudimage.io to get a token (for CDN delivery) and then put my images on S3, Google Cloud or Azure Blob which require credit card information for the free trial.
no at all. It's possible to use images from local folder, I'll add an example. You may not need to use Cloudimage token if you don't need responsive features (or you can make it yourself or use any other service). Only responsive features require Cloudimage token. However, it's great to use Cloudimage service as you can forget about resizing and compressing images for all devices or different screen width.
