@JoaquimLey Hi! Thanks! Glad you like it :-)
I currently have no plans to detach the UI from the file processing, it's rather tightly coupled at the moment and detaching it would take considerable effort. There's also the matter of animation timing where state changes happen based on the various interactions and file states, for instance, some will be queued till the interface is in idle state to allow for smooth transitions. Controlling this from the outside will probably result in a less than optimal visualisation.
Know that the advanced server config is set up to allow for fine control over uploading while still having the benefits of the FilePond UI. Feel free to add an issue about the advanced server config, I'm happy to help, and will try to improve the docs ( always learning ). Also, if you have suggestions, pull requests on the docs repository are most welcome.

Will close this issue for now as I think we can resolve the problem by correctly setting up the server config.
@JoaquimLey I forgot to thank you for the detailed and well thought out issue description, it's very much appreciated.
Thank you for the very detailed response, I've now opened the new issue π hopefully, it is still possible to find a good enough solution :).
You are very welcome! It is the least I can do, by asking for your generous time, I don't want you to try and guess what my issue is hehe πͺ.
Hi there, first of all, thank you so much for the plugin and the wrappers! Really helps!
My request/question is if you are thinking about exposing an interface to handle the UI states of the component.
For clarification, my use case is using firebase as the backend, so I would like to use the component as a ui-only element, it would be great if I could manipulate the ui state(s), something along the lines of
Of course the naming and methods could be improved, but these would be utility methods to control the component, I'm aware of the advanced server configuration but I wasn't able to do what I wanted, I found the documentation a little confusing, I'm quite noobish on
JS/Vue
π.I tried to search for similar issues but couldn't really find one, also if there's an easy way to do this with the Server configuration could you try to explain a little further?
