How to serialize file handles? #30

Closed GreenFootballs closed 3 years ago

GreenFootballs commented 3 years ago

The article at web.dev mentions that file handles are serializable, and can be stored in IndexedDB (and presumably chrome.storage?), but there's no example and I haven't been able to make this work. What is the procedure for serializing the file handles for storage?

I have just documented the answer on StackOverflow.
