About
About File Uploader
The application provides a reusable file upload hook, drag-and-drop functionality with real-time progress bars, react-hook-form integration for seamless form workflows, and a file dialog for adding and removing files. Bootstrapped with create-t3-app, it offers a clean, modern interface that makes file uploading intuitive and visually appealing while handling validation, error states, and upload progress. The component supports multiple file uploads, file type restrictions, size limits, and custom validation rules through Zod schemas.
With uploadthing integration, files are securely stored and managed with automatic URL generation and metadata tracking. Perfect for applications requiring document uploads, image galleries, profile pictures, or any file management functionality, File Uploader demonstrates best practices for building accessible, production-ready upload experiences. The project includes comprehensive documentation for local setup and deployment to platforms like Vercel, Netlify, and Docker.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before you ship with File Uploader.
File Uploader is a modern, user-friendly file upload component built with Next.js, shadcn/ui, Tailwind CSS, react-dropzone, uploadthing, and Zod for validation. It is an open source template in the shadcn.io collection of 215.
File Uploader is made by Sadmann7, an independent developer; shadcn.io lists it but did not make it. Sadmann7 has 4 templates in the collection, and the author's page lists them.
The listing tags File Uploader with Next.js, React and Tailwind. Those are its categories, not a dependency list: the exact packages and versions are in the repository's package.json.
Yes. The File Uploader page embeds its live demo from diceui.com/docs/components/file-upload, and links to it so you can open the real deployment before you clone.
The File Uploader listing was last updated on October 8, 2025. That date is the listing's, not the repository's: check the repository's commits for recent activity.
Clone the repository (git clone https://github.com/sadmann7/file-uploader), then follow the README. The File Uploader page shows the usual steps and a terminal block with the commands to copy.
Install dependencies with npm install or pnpm install, then run npm run dev. The README in the File Uploader repository says which package manager and environment variables it needs.
No. File Uploader is cloned from its own GitHub repository, so shadcn.io isn't involved. Browsing the page and its live demo need no account either; Pro adds the premium templates, the blocks and the MCP server.
File Uploader is tagged Next.js, so it deploys wherever a Next.js app does, such as Vercel, a Node.js server or a container. Its README may add steps for its own services.
The File Uploader listing doesn't record a license. Check the LICENSE file in its repository (https://github.com/sadmann7/file-uploader), and ask the author if there isn't one.
That depends on File Uploader's license in its repository, which shadcn.io does not set. Read the LICENSE file before you use it in a client or paid project, and ask the author if it is unclear.
Attribution follows File Uploader's license. Many permissive licenses ask you to keep the copyright notice and license text in your copy; its LICENSE file says exactly what.
No. The Pro license covers shadcn.io's own Pro code, blocks and premium templates. File Uploader is the author's project, under the terms in its repository.
Sadmann7 supports File Uploader, through its GitHub repository: read the docs, open an issue or look for discussions. shadcn.io does not maintain it.
Yes. Once you clone it, File Uploader is your own code: change the theme, add pages and connect your backend. It uses shadcn/ui, so you can also add more components the same way.
Yes. Components are free with a free account and the blocks are in Pro; both are copied into your project with the shadcn CLI. Check that File Uploader uses Tailwind CSS and the shadcn/ui setup (a components.json) before you add them, and pick the base library your project already uses.
Yes, with Pro. The shadcn.io MCP server's search_templates tool finds templates by what they are, and returns each one's repository and live demo, so your editor can set up File Uploader for you. Your files stay on your machine.
The collection has 151 other open source Next.js templates like File Uploader, shown at the foot of its page with the ones sharing most categories first. All of them are at /template/category/nextjs.
Sadmann7 has 3 other templates in the collection, including Shadcn Table, Sortable and CSV Importer. The author's page lists them all.
Yes. The 14 premium templates (Solaris, Reframe Labs, Spherule and Max and more) are built by shadcn.io and come with every Pro plan, if you want maintained code with a design file.
