 #### Form data
 
+##### 🆕 Automatic serialization
+
+Starting from `v0.27.0`, Axios supports automatic object serialization to a FormData object if the request `Content-Type` 
+header is set to `multipart/form-data`.
+
+The following request will submit the data in a FormData format (Browser & Node.js):
+
+```js
+import axios from 'axios';
+
+axios.post('https://httpbin.org/post', {x: 1}, {
+  headers: {
+    'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
+  }
+}).then(({data})=> console.log(data));
+```
+
+In the `node.js` build, the ([`form-data`](https://github.com/form-data/form-data)) polyfill is used by default.
+
+You can overload the FormData class by setting the `env.FormData` config variable,
+but you probably won't need it in most cases:
+
+```js
+const axios= require('axios');
+var FormData = require('form-data');
+
+axios.post('https://httpbin.org/post', {x: 1, buf: new Buffer(10)}, {
+  headers: {
+    'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
+  }
+}).then(({data})=> console.log(data));
+```
+
+Axios FormData serializer supports some special endings to perform the following operations:
+
+- `{}` - serialize the value with JSON.stringify
+- `[]` - unwrap the array like object as separate fields with the same key 
+
+```js
+const axios= require('axios');
+
+axios.post('https://httpbin.org/post', {
+  'myObj{}': {x: 1, s: "foo"},
+  'files[]': document.querySelector('#fileInput').files 
+}, {
+  headers: {
+    'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
+  }
+}).then(({data})=> console.log(data));
+```
+
+Axios supports the following shortcut methods: `postForm`, `putForm`, `patchForm`
+which are just the corresponding http methods with a header preset: `Content-Type`: `multipart/form-data`.
+
+FileList object can be passed directly:
+
+```js
+await axios.postForm('https://httpbin.org/post', document.querySelector('#fileInput').files)
+```
+
+All files will be sent with the same field names: `files[]`;
+
+##### Manual FormData passing
+  
 In node.js, you can use the [`form-data`](https://github.com/form-data/form-data) library as follows:
 
 ```js
@@ -843,18 +937,7 @@ form.append('my_field', 'my value');

-Alternatively, use an interceptor:
-
-```js
-axios.interceptors.request.use(config => {
-  if (config.data instanceof FormData) {
-    Object.assign(config.headers, config.data.getHeaders());
