Setup to allow autoFocus to work or something similar

[Nate-Wilkins]

When setting up react-dropzone there's no good way to auto focus the element.
I've tried using refs and auto focusing after mount but it doesn't work.

Is there a way to get this built directly into the library?

Does anyone know if there is a workaround to this?

Here's a sandbox demonstrating the problem.

Could you share what you tried? Maybe a codesandbox?

Thanks. Yeah, the input is not displayed, so you cannot focus. Try w79ely, let me know if that's what you're looking for.

I'm thinking it may be useful to have an autoFocus 🤔
