This is unbelievably useful if you need to have the client download multiple files with one click just using the client-side. This wasn't possible before. Great

- smackfu 15y agoAren't the multiple files still on the server side? Why can't the server side just zip them?
- callmeed 15y agoUsing Heroku, for example, you don't get any local file storage space and there are temp file limits.
- maratd 15y ago> Aren't the multiple files still on the server side? No, you can generate a file using JavaScript/Canvas/SVG/etc. and then allow the user to save it to their system.
- dspillett 15y agoAye. I once created a "theme generator" for SonyEricsson phones with javascript client-side and php server-side. Their themes were basically a .tar.gz of files: one listing all the colours and other options and the rest being images for the various interface elements. With the canvas and something like this, almost the entire thing could be done client-site now.
