About this tag
IndexedDB is a low-level API for client-side storage of significant amounts of structured data, including files and blobs. On WindowsForum.com, discussions cover using IndexedDB in web development, particularly its integration with browser developer tools. One thread highlights the IndexedDB manager in Microsoft Edge DevTools, introduced with the Windows 10 April 2018 Update, which enables developers to inspect databases, sort data, and delete entries directly from the Debugger.
