I want to select multiple files from different directories by using html input type="file" element. I couldn't find any resource to do this. is there any npm package available that can be used either in react js or vue js?

  • This is for selecting the folder, but is there any option to select just the files from different directory. – elango ram Nov 09 '22 at 05:02
  • You can only select files / folders from the current open file dialog. So you couldn't multiple files from multiple directory because you can only select file/ folder at a time – Mohammed Shahed Nov 09 '22 at 05:31
