To limit the number of files that can be uploaded using dropzone.js, you can set the maxFiles option in the initialization of Dropzone. Here's an example of how you can limit the number of files to 3:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
Dropzone.options.myDropzone = {
  maxFiles: 3,
  init: function() {
    this.on("addedfile", function(file) {
      if (this.files.length > this.options.maxFiles) {
        this.removeFile(file);
      }
    });
  }
};


In this code snippet, we set the maxFiles option to 3. We then use the addedfile event to check if the number of files exceeds the maxFiles value. If the limit is exceeded, we remove the newly added file. This ensures that only up to 3 files can be uploaded using dropzone.js.
