KV Storage, the Web’s First Built-In Module

Chrome is experimenting with a new feature called built-in modules, and the first one we’re planning to ship is an asynchronous key/value storage module called KV Storage

The KV Storage module is similar in its simplicity to the API, but its API shape is actually closer to a JavaScript . Here’s an example of how to use the KV Storage module in your code:

If you’re familiar with using native JavaScript modules in browsers, you probably know that (at least up until now) importing anything other than a URL will generate an error.
