.txt merger - Stardance

Ship #1

Simple page to merge .txt files. It all runs only on the frontend, so your files stay on your machine.
I picked this because some other tools didn't have a rearrange option as well as naming the output file.
It was a little tough, since it was my first time using JS, but glad to see it only took me 3 hours without AI.

Finally finished up the styling! It was a battle with CSS but alas, I can ship the project now!

Looking back, I think I understand JS a little more now, but it is definitely not going to be a favorite. Good ol python

Today, I worked on styling the project a little more and actually making the drag mechanic functional. The user can now upload and download the merged files, element visibility is dynamic based on the content (is a file uploaded etc). You can even reorder your files.
I haven’t styled the download button yet, however.

I worked on some simple styling of the page. Decided to go for a basic cyber-ish style; dark with strong lights, creating a sharp contrast. Uploading files works, merging also, but I haven’t been able to figure out the dragging yet. Not fully, at least.

Today I worked on a skeleton HTML file. Pondering upon what method to use to make this project functional, I had settled upon a single file with some JS. After this short session, I have coded a file upload and a button which starts merging the file.
No file is returned yet, only by the method, not for the user, however.
