Support for FileField

[raivil]

Hello, I'm planning on adding file upload support to my app (and other fields types, such as rich text area) and I'm wondering what would be a good strategy to support it.

I've added a discussion at https://github.com/primer/view_components/discussions/1346 and a link to a PR

What would be a good strategy to support those fields? Do you have suggestions other than the implemented on the discussion post (https://github.com/primer/view_components/discussions/1346) that would be simpler?

Thank you!

Hi @raivil, thanks for opening up this conversation! I'll add this to the team's radar and we'll aim to get back to you by next week.

Sorry for the delay with our response, @raivil and @danielnc!

@joelhawksley as first responder this week, do you have any thoughts or recommendations on this?

Hey @raivil, apologies, I've been heads-down on a work item this week and haven't had a chance to catch up with my notifications until now.

I responded to the discussion you linked, but long story short: there's not a simpler way at the moment. I'd be happy to pair sometime next week if you like 😄

@camertron thank you for the reply. I'm currently out of bandwidth for a pairing session, but I'll definitely consider it when thing calm down.
