Returning files from load function does not work

[szethh]

just saw the implementation of withFiles, turns out it actually just removes the files.

is there another way of sending files as initial values?

my use case is a form that is submitted with some attachments, and then can be edited again.
the attachments would be sent from the server to the client such that the attachments can be edited.

i can do this with an api route that i fetch from the client but i was hoping there was an "intended" (superforms-wise) way to do it.

SvelteKit cannot serialize File objects, so you need to handle it yourself, base64-encode the data for example and send it as a string in the load function data, then create the File object on the client before calling superForm.
