This Drag & Drop Area includes the following features:

Here's a breakdown of the component:

You will use the `useState` hook to manage the dragging state and the list of dropped files. The `useCallback` hook is used to memoize the event handler functions, optimizing performance. The component handles `onDragOver`, `onDragLeave`, and `onDrop` events to provide visual feedback and process dropped files. When files are dropped, they are added to the `files` state array. The component displays an upload icon and instructional text in the drop area. Below the drop area, it lists the names of all dropped files.

Here's a preview of the DragDrop:

Drag and drop files here, or click to select files

Note:

This component is styled using Tailwind CSS classes for a clean, responsive design. The drop area changes its appearance when files are being dragged over it, providing clear visual feedback to the user. The component is fully functional and ready to be integrated into your project. Feel free to customize the design and functionality to suit your needs. Happy coding!
