I absolutely hate trying to upload an image to a website for it to error out that the file is too large.
This post I wrote a while back has some very copy/pasteable code to resize an image using canvas before uploading.

The technique is also production ready. When I worked doing identity verification using licenses, we were able to use something like this and size the image down for faster uploads without compromising successful verifications.

Hello there 🙂
But what if you have no knowledge of JS?
Are you doomed to have the same issue and give up?😪
@globcoco this solution is more for web devs building a page that uploads an image. If every site had this feature it would just work for everyone, even those with no knowledge of JS :)
