Description

Hello, I am trying to grab a file path while using drag and drop in my application. Is there a way to get it? The situation with paths is problematic, I found a search where you described how to work with a folder in "getting file path # 86", but I could not use this to solve my problem.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Eel handles JavaScript events and passes data to Python. Look at the current drag and drop implementation or lack thereof. Consider using the File API in JavaScript to get file paths during drop events, and then pass them to Python via Eel's exposed functions.
