</div>The file: prefix in Tailwind allows us to style the ::file-selector-button, and it can be combined with the btn class.
<input type="file" class="block text-sm file:uppercase file:btn file:btn-primary file:me-3" aria-label="file-input" />Add the disabled boolean attribute on an file input to remove pointer events, and prevent focusing.
<input type="file" class="input max-w-sm" aria-label="file-input" disabled />Placement of helper text and label.
<div class="max-w-sm">
<label class="label-text" for="fileInputHelperText"> Pick a file </label>
<input type="file" class="input" id="fileInputHelperText" />
<span class="helper-text">Helper text</span>
</div>Add multiple attribute to select more then 1 file.
