## What it is
A small JavaScript library for copying text to the clipboard in the browser, using the Async Clipboard API with automatic fallback to document.execCommand('copy'). It supports copying rich text (text/html), custom ClipboardItem construction, and an optional prompt-based last resort.

## Use cases
- copy text to clipboard in the browser
- copy rich text html to clipboard with plain text fallback
- clipboard copy fallback for non-https contexts
- copy multiline or tab-separated data to clipboard
- copy text from modal dialogs or fullscreen elements
- add a copy button to a web app

## When to avoid
- you are building an Electron app (use Electron's clipboard API instead)
- you need clipboard read access, not just writing
- you are in a Node.js/server environment with no DOM

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, gui
- domain: web-development, frontend, developer-tools
- platform: browser
- tags: clipboard, copy-to-clipboard, browser-api, execcommand-fallback, rich-text-copy, javascript, nodejs
