I did love the explanation, you went into the right amount of depth and explained it well, you gave enough information for the developer to decide on the solution whether it is for them or not
Thank you for this gem and best of luck

at 8:00, if you send a big object to a webworker to insert into indexedDB, does it block the main thread to structured clone the big object to postMessage to the worker, or is that asyncronous?

[@webdevlog]

The insertion itself to indexedDB from the webworker will be async but the postMessage will run structured clone if it's an object.

you need to speak more clearly.. the editing was on point but at around 2:45 you mumble terms which are important to know. Please take this as constructive not trying to hate other than that great video
