+### Example: Using the FileUploader
+
+The `FileUploader` module provides standardized utilities for validating and uploading files. It supports both traditional binary (`Multipart/Form-Data`) and JSON-based Base64 uploads.
+
+#### Base64 File Conversions (For Previews)
+The `toBase64` utility converts a raw `File` object into a Base64 string. It follows the "Always Resolve" pattern.
+
+```javascript
+import { toBase64 } from "@vicaniddouglas/js_aide";
+
+const res = await toBase64(myFile);
+
+if (res.status) {
+    // res.data is the full data URL (e.g. data:image/png;base64,...)
+    myImagePreview.src = res.data;
+} else {
+    console.error("Conversion failed:", res.log);
+}
+```
+
+#### Standard Binary Upload
+By default, `uploadFile` sends files as a binary `Multipart/Form-Data` stream.
+
+```javascript
+import { uploadFile, popup } from "@vicaniddouglas/js_aide";
+
+await uploadFile({
+    files: document.getElementById('myFileInput').files[0],
+    endpoint: '/api/upload-avatar',
+    fieldName: 'avatar',
+    onSuccess: () => popup.success("Avatar uploaded!")
+});
+```
+
+#### Base64 JSON Upload
+For APIs that require images to be embedded in a JSON payload, simply toggle the `asBase64` flag.
+
+```javascript
+import { uploadFile } from "@vicaniddouglas/js_aide";
+
+await uploadFile({
+    files: selectedFiles,
+    endpoint: '/api/upload-as-json',
+    asBase64: true, // Automically converts to Base64 strings
+    stripPrefix: true, // Only send the raw Base64 data (no "data:image/..." prefix)
+    payload: {
+        userId: 123,
+        description: "Holiday photo"
+    }
+});
+```
+
 ### Example: Using the Popup System
 
 The `popup` module provides a Promise-based modal system for showing professional alerts. It is fully accessible (supports the `Escape` key) and highly customizable.
