drop files into local folders with pragmatic dnd

[rakurtz]

First of all: Thanks for this awesome library and the good documentation. I've been playing with it for two days now and it feels just nice.

I am trying to allow users to drag and drop files (images and pdfs) from the web app into local folders. In this test with plain text it works:

// within a `draggable`
getInitialDataForExternal: () => ({
          'text/plain': "some content"
      }),

When dragged/dropped onto a local folder, the system creates a text file. Interestingly the file is named some content (with no file extension). The content ist correctly set to "some content".

1. Is there a way to set the file name?
2. How would one attach byte content to drop an image or a pdf?
3. Is there a way to drop multiple files at once? (I saw there is mediatype of Files

NativeMediaType = "text/uri-list" | "text/plain" | "text/html" | "Files" | (string & {})

Thanks a lot in advance!

i am not sure if it is not possible or if i just don't understand how to make it work.

has anyone implemented a working file drop from browser to desktop / local folder? Hints are highly appreciated :)
