FileInput is the most barebones UI for selecting files—it shows a single button
that, when clicked, opens up the browser’s file selector.

Uppy is being developed by the folks at [Transloadit](https://transloadit.com),
a versatile file encoding service.

## Example

```js
import Uppy from '@uppy/core'
import FileInput from '@uppy/file-input'

const uppy = new Uppy()
uppy.use(FileInput, {
  // Options
})
```

## Installation

```bash
$ npm install @uppy/file-input
```

Alternatively, you can also use this plugin in a pre-built bundle from
Transloadit’s CDN: Smart CDN. In that case `Uppy` will attach itself to the
global `window.Uppy` object. See the
[main Uppy documentation](https://uppy.io/docs/#Installation) for instructions.

Documentation for this plugin can be found on the
