[ADDCODE]

After you done all this step then your layour look like following screenshot.

Create Route:

First, we need to create following two route one for display blade and another for store our multi-uploading files

Route::get('multifileupload', 'HomeController@multifileupload')->name('multifileupload');
Route::post('multifileupload', 'HomeController@store')->name('multifileupload');
	

Add Two Method In HomeController:

Now, oopen your HomeController.php file and add following two method in it. one for display blade file and secound is for store your multifiles

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Http\Requests;
use Session;

class HomeController extends Controller
{
	public function multifileupload()
    {
        return view('dropzoneJs');
    }

    public function store(Request $request)
    {
    	
    	$image = $request->file('file');
        $imageName = time().$image->getClientOriginalName();
        $upload_success = $image->move(public_path('images'),$imageName);
        
        if ($upload_success) {
            return response()->json($upload_success, 200);
        }
        // Else, return error 400
        else {
            return response()->json('error', 400);
        }
    }
}	
	

Here, your all files store in this path public/images

Create View File:

Now, last things we are create our dropzoneJs.blade.php file in resources/views folder. then add following code in this blade file.

Looking my following code sample i left empty style and jquery section. so, i write this code after blade file code. so when you can integrate it then must be write in one file depend on you.

1.) HTML code

@extends('layouts.app')
@section('style')

@endsection
@section('content')
<div class="container">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-12">
      <div class="card card-default">
        <div class="card-header">
          <div class="row">
            <div class="col-md-12">
              <strong>Laravelcode - Multiple files uploading using dropzoneJs</strong>
            </div>
          </div>
        </div>
        <div class="card-body">
          <form action="{{ route('dropzoneJs') }}" enctype="multipart/form-data" class="dropzone" id="fileupload" method="POST">
            @csrf
            <div class="fallback">
              <input name="file" type="files" multiple accept="image/jpeg, image/png, image/jpg" />
            </div>
          </form>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
@endsection
@section('jquery')

@endsection

Now add this css code in your style section

<link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/dropzone/5.4.0/basic.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<style type="text/css">
    .dropzone {
        border:2px dashed #999999;
        border-radius: 10px;
    }
    .dropzone .dz-default.dz-message {
        height: 171px;
        background-size: 132px 132px;
        margin-top: -101.5px;
        background-position-x:center;

    }
    .dropzone .dz-default.dz-message span {
        display: block;
        margin-top: 145px;
        font-size: 20px;
        text-align: center;
    }
</style>

Now add this css code in your jquery section

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/dropzone/5.4.0/dropzone.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
  Dropzone.options.fileupload = {
    accept: function (file, done) {
      if (file.type != "application/vnd.ms-excel" && file.type != "image/jpeg, image/png, image/jpg") {
        done("Error! Files of this type are not accepted");
      } else {
        done();
      }
    }
  }

Dropzone.options.fileupload = {
  acceptedFiles: "image/jpeg, image/png, image/jpg"
}

if (typeof Dropzone != 'undefined') {
  Dropzone.autoDiscover = false;
}

;
(function ($, window, undefined) {
  "use strict";

  $(document).ready(function () {
    // Dropzone Example
    if (typeof Dropzone != 'undefined') {
      if ($("#fileupload").length) {
        var dz = new Dropzone("#fileupload"),
          dze_info = $("#dze_info"),
          status = {
            uploaded: 0,
            errors: 0
          };
        var $f = $('<tr><td class="name"></td><td class="size"></td><td class="type"></td><td class="status"></td></tr>');
        dz.on("success", function (file, responseText) {

            var _$f = $f.clone();

            _$f.addClass('success');

            _$f.find('.name').html(file.name);
            if (file.size < 1024) {
              _$f.find('.size').html(parseInt(file.size) + ' KB');
            } else {
              _$f.find('.size').html(parseInt(file.size / 1024, 10) + ' KB');
            }
            _$f.find('.type').html(file.type);
            _$f.find('.status').html('Uploaded <i class="entypo-check"></i>');

            dze_info.find('tbody').append(_$f);

            status.uploaded++;

            dze_info.find('tfoot td').html('<span class="label label-success">' + status.uploaded + ' uploaded</span> <span class="label label-danger">' + status.errors + ' not uploaded</span>');

            toastr.success('Your File Uploaded Successfully!!', 'Success Alert', {
              timeOut: 50000000
            });

          })
          .on('error', function (file) {
            var _$f = $f.clone();

            dze_info.removeClass('hidden');

            _$f.addClass('danger');

            _$f.find('.name').html(file.name);
            _$f.find('.size').html(parseInt(file.size / 1024, 10) + ' KB');
            _$f.find('.type').html(file.type);
            _$f.find('.status').html('Uploaded <i class="entypo-cancel"></i>');

            dze_info.find('tbody').append(_$f);

            status.errors++;

            dze_info.find('tfoot td').html('<span class="label label-success">' + status.uploaded + ' uploaded</span> <span class="label label-danger">' + status.errors + ' not uploaded</span>');

            toastr.error('Your File Uploaded Not Successfully!!', 'Error Alert', {
