I had a site where the user can upload a file < 5MB. There may be a way to check this on the frontend, but for security reasons, it has to be checked on the backend too.
If it exceeds it, I returned 400. I had to add an event listener to check for the code (htmx:afterRequest) and show an alert(), but this gets difficult to manage if there's multiple requests to different endpoints on the page. Looking at it now, maybe I should have configured HTMX to swap for 4xx.
