No apparent way to determine mime type of a file #324

When using node, to determine the type of a file, the file-type or mime packages might be used. But when using BrowserFS, these packages aren't available.

// even if you try (lol)
Uncaught TypeError: n is null
    require browserfs.ts:31
    <anonymous> debugger eval code:1

How can I find out the mime-type of a file using BrowserFS?

@TheAwesome98-Real You may want to look into non-node libraries similar to file-type or mime.
