FilePond is a flexible JavaScript file upload library that enhances file inputs with drag-and-drop, paste, and async upload support, including chunked uploads and image optimization. It ships with adapters for React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, and jQuery.
Use cases
- add drag-and-drop file uploads to a web form
- upload images with previews and EXIF orientation fixes
- resize and optimize images in the browser before upload
- support chunked uploads of large files
- build an accessible multi-file upload component in React or Vue
- accept files from directories, URLs, or clipboard paste
When to choose
- you need a polished, accessible file upload UI in vanilla JS or a major framework
- you want client-side image resizing, cropping, or preview before upload
- you need chunked or AJAX-based async uploads with a smooth UX
When to avoid
- you only need a plain file input with no enhanced UX
- you need a full server-side upload backend rather than a client-side widget
- you require a non-MIT image editor - the companion Pintura editor is commercial
