## What it is
A Vue.js 2 component wrapping Dropzone.js to provide drag-and-drop file uploads with image previews. It is in maintenance mode with the maintainer seeking co-maintainers.

## Use cases

- show image previews while users upload files
- accept multiple file uploads with progress feedback
- customize upload UI with a Dropzone.js wrapper
- handle file uploads in a Nuxt SSR-compatible way (via nuxt-dropzone fork)

## When to choose
- you are building on Vue 2 and want Dropzone.js functionality as a component
- you need quick drag-and-drop uploads with built-in image previews

## When to avoid
