Web Locks #138

Open sideshowbarker opened 6 years ago

sideshowbarker commented 6 years ago

Spec: https://wicg.github.io/web-locks/
Explainer: https://github.com/WICG/web-locks/blob/master/EXPLAINER.md
MDN article: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Locks_API
TAG design review: https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/217

The Web Locks API allows scripts running in one tab or worker to asynchronously acquire a lock, hold it while work is performed, then release it. While held, no other script executing in the same origin can acquire the same lock, which allows a web app running in multiple tabs or workers to coordinate work and the use of resources.

Sorry, I seem to have closed that by mistake when I experimented with the new GitHub project. Re-opening.
