Frequently asked questions
What is a MIME type?
A MIME (or media) type like image/png or application/json tells browsers and servers what kind of data a file contains, usually via the Content-Type header.
Is my data uploaded?
No. The lookup uses a built-in table that runs entirely in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere.
What MIME type should I use for JavaScript?
The modern standard is text/javascript for .js and .mjs files; application/javascript is also widely accepted.
Does it work offline?
Yes. As a PWA it keeps working with no connection once loaded.
