Web APIs

Some Web APIs aren’t relevant in the context of a server-first runtime like JSTime, such as the DOM API or History API. Many others, though, are broadly useful outside of the browser context; when possible, JSTime implements these Web-standard APIs instead of introducing new APIs.

The following Web APIs are partially or completely supported.
