Description

Feature

We'd love to have lightbox (maybe use that pluign or not) support for the file and files fields.

Something that would support cycling through files and showing a preview of them.

I could see the having a Hotwire solution too.

Research direction
Research stimulus lightbox plugin and Hotwire solutions. Integrate with Avo's file field to create a lightbox that cycles through files. Start by examining the existing file field component and how to attach Stimulus controllers.
