Hi, using panel is it possible to create some files(.txt) in the users machine, maybe in the temp directory ?? Does panel have some control over the users machine to do some basic file operations ? I know there is a FileDownload widget available, but that requires a path to be specified, I am not sure if providing a path will write the files in the users machine. Please suggest me if there is any way to do this.
Thanks.
If the user is interacting through the browser they are always in the sandboxed context of the browser, you don’t have permissions to the users file system. But, there are techniques to store/cache files locally within the browser (Blobs and IndexedDB)
