In web-development we meet binary data mostly while dealing with files (create, upload, download). Another typical use case is image processing.
That's all possible in Javascript, and binary operations are high-performant.
That's all possible in JavaScript, and binary operations are high-performant.
Although, there's a bit of confusion, because there are many classes. To name a few:
- `ArrayBuffer`, `Uint8Array`, `DataView`, `Blob`, `File`, etc.
