Uploading large files can be problematic, especially when users have unstable internet connections. A failed upload often means starting over from scratch.
Fortunately, FilePond supports chunked uploads, allowing files to be split into smaller pieces and uploaded sequentially. Combined with Laravel, this provides a reliable way to handle large file uploads while supporting progress tracking and resumable uploads.
In this tutorial, we'll build a chunked file upload system using FilePond and Laravel.

<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

<title>{{ config('app.name', 'Laravel') }}</title>

const csrf = document.querySelector('meta[name="csrf-token"]').content;
FilePond.create(document.querySelector('input[type="file"]'), {
chunkUploads: true,
chunkSize: 5 * 1024 * 1024,
allowMultiple: false,
server: {
