Pros & Cons
Pros
Compatible with IE9 and HTML4, making it a rare choice for projects that cannot drop older browsers without additional polyfills.
Out-of-the-box support for multi-file uploads, directory uploads, drag-and-drop, and chunk uploads, saving development time on complex implementations.
Designed as a minimal button, allowing developers to extensively style and modify the interface with CSS or slots to match their application's design.
Automatically creates preview thumbnails for uploaded image files, enhancing user experience without requiring extra libraries for basic image handling.
Cons
Provides only a basic button with no default styling, requiring significant CSS work for a polished UI, which can be time-consuming for teams wanting quick integration.
As a standalone component, it lacks the extensive plugins, themes, and active community support found in more popular upload solutions, potentially slowing down issue resolution.
Documentation is hosted on a separate site, which might be less convenient than integrated docs and could lead to accessibility or update delays compared to well-maintained READMEs.
