Files and Attachments in Salesforce Lightning

Salesforce are trying to make you convert all your attachments to Files, and only use Files from now on. But it's just not practical. So I've reviewed almost every app on the Appexchange to work out if there is a way we can still use Files AND Attachments AND see all the info we could see in Classic. We can almost do this... with a couple of Components. It's not ideal, but it does the job.
