A tiny JavaScript library providing a download() function that triggers client-side file downloads in the browser from strings, Blobs, Typed Arrays, URLs, or dataURLs. It saves files with a specified name and MIME type, mimicking a server's Content-Disposition header.

Use cases

  • trigger a file download from javascript
  • save generated data as a file in the browser
  • download a blob to the user's disk
  • export client-side data to a csv or text file
  • save a dataurl as a named file
  • download a file from a url without a server round trip

When to choose

  • you need a small dependency-free way to save client-generated data as a file
  • you want to trigger downloads from strings, blobs, typed arrays, or dataurls
  • you need broad legacy browser support for client-side downloads

When to avoid

  • you need server-side file downloads or streaming large files
  • you need download progress tracking or resumable downloads
  • your framework already provides a built-in file-save utility
