Integrating FilePond into an HTML Page
index.html
To integrate FilePond into your HTML page, you start with a simple HTML structure. The first line, <!DOCTYPE html>, tells the browser to render the page using the latest HTML standard. Inside the <head>, you include the FilePond stylesheet from a CDN, which provides the necessary styles for FilePond's interface. In the <body>, a standard file input element (<input type="file" id="fileUpload">) is placed where users will select their files.
The FilePond JavaScript library is also loaded from a CDN, just before your custom script. In your script, you select the file input element with getElementById and then call FilePond.create(inputElement);. This single line replaces the default browser file input with the FilePond uploader, giving you a modern, interactive file upload experience without changing the underlying HTML form structure. The input element remains accessible, and FilePond manages the interface and file handling.
