Example

Preview

PDF or image, up to 10 MB.

<Field intent="field.file" label="Attachment" accept=".pdf,image/*" hint="PDF or image, up to 10 MB." />

Code that says upload, file, attach, import points here. prongs check warns when an element with this intent has a handler or label that points somewhere else.

Choosing between neighbours

Find the row that describes your element, and use the intent on the right.

Connections

Declared in the registry, both directions. Where an intent is used in your own code is something check and the gallery see; this site has no app code.

For registry authors

Starter intents. These are the intents prongs add puts in your registry, shown in this site’s theme. Yours are your own registry.ts: rename, restyle and add to them, and see them with prongs add gallery.

What this intent is built from and its entry in components/prongs/registry.ts. You only need this to change how it looks or to add an intent like it.

How field.file resolves, and its definition

Each layer adds to the one before it; a later class wins over an earlier one that sets the same thing.
