 ## The file input Tag
 
-In HTML, a `<input type="file">` lets the user choose one or more files from their device's storage, allowing the app to handle them as per the use case.
+In HTML, an `<input type="file">` lets the user choose one or more files from their device storage to be uploaded to a server or manipulated by JavaScript via the [File API](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/File/Using_files_from_web_applications).
 
 ```html
 <input type="file" />

You can use the various File management API provided by Javascript to handle the files that are uploaded by the user.

 ## Handling Multiple Inputs
 
 When you need to handle multiple controlled `input` elements, you can add a `name` attribute to each element and let the handler function choose what to do based on the value of `event.target.name`.
