Creating a Simple File Upload Component in React

In today’s digital age, file uploads are an essential feature for many web applications. Whether you’re allowing users to upload their profile pictures or sharing documents, having a seamless file upload component can greatly enhance user experience. If you're looking to build a simple file upload component in React that allows users to upload a file and shows the file name upon submission, you’ve come to the right place!

Understanding the Requirements

Let's break down the core requirements for our file upload component:

File Selection: Users should be able to select a file from their device.

Submission: After selecting a file, there should be a button to submit the upload.

Feedback: Once submitted, the component should display a message indicating the file name, such as "You uploaded fileName.txt".

Step-by-Step Solution

Creating a file upload component can be straightforward if you follow these steps carefully. Here’s how to implement it using React.

1. Setting Up State

First, we need to manage the component state to keep track of the selected file's name. We will use React's state management through the useState hook:

selectedFileName: This state holds the name of the file that the user selects.

displayFileName: This state controls whether the file name will be displayed after submission.

2. Handling File Selection

Next, we need to handle the file selection event. When a user selects a file, we’ll capture the name of the file and update our state accordingly:

3. Submitting the File

We also need a function to handle the file submission. This function will simply toggle the display state to show the uploaded file name:
