Explainer None Specification https://www.w3.org/TR/FileAPI Design docs https://w3c.github.io/FileAPI/#dom-blob-bytes Summary The bytes() method of the Blob interface returns a Promise that resolves with a Uint8Array containing the contents of the blob as an array of bytes. Blink component Blink>Storage>FileAPI Motivation Developers currently need to invoke the arrayBuffer method on a Blob and then convert the result into a Uint8Array whenever they want raw bytes. Blob.bytes collapses this two-step ritual into a single call, returning a Uint8Array. By removing the extra allocation and copy, it trims garbage-collection overhead and lowers latency when processing large blobs.
