Binary data

JavaScript is increasingly used in areas where it has to process binary data as efficiently as possible. Examples: handle network protocols, decode video, interoperate with native APIs and processors, and encode and decode various serialization formats. In order to support these use cases, there is a proposal for binary data types:

const Point = new StructType({ x: uint32, y: uint32 }); const Triangle = new ArrayType(Point, 3); let pt = new Triangle([ { x: 0, y: 3 }, { x: 0, y: 3 }, { x: 0, y: 3 } ]);

Point and Triangle are binary data types, and can be used to parse and generate binary data.
