Backpressure note: a fast producer never overwhelms a slow consumer. The reader pulls, the writer waits for readiness, and pipeTo wires the two together. That is the same mechanism behind streaming fetch responses and file downloads.

About this tool

IconVault's Streams API playground makes streaming data click. Run live ReadableStream, WritableStream and TransformStream demos, watch chunks arrive in a timestamped chunk log, and read the exact code behind every demo. The full pipeline demo chains read, transform and write exactly like a real download pipeline.

Everything is free and runs fully in your browser, with zero setup. Backpressure is the key idea: the reader pulls, the writer waits for readiness, and `pipeTo` wires producers to consumers without ever buffering the whole file in memory.
