In this episode, we ran into a pesky little error when canceling an upload—it turns out that our code was trying to work with the Uploader object after it had already been set to null. Oops! This caused some issues because properties like paused couldn't be accessed anymore, throwing errors in the console.
To fix it, we walked through the process of using Alpine's nextTick function. Basically, instead of immediately setting Uploader to null when canceling, we wait for the next DOM update with nextTick. This ensures all relevant bits of the UI update properly before Uploader disappears, so nothing tries to use it after it's gone.
We tested the fix out—uploading, pausing, resuming, and then canceling again—and saw that everything now works smoothly without any console errors. So that little bug is squashed, and you're now set with a handy trick using nextTick!
