💻 Code

TypeScript/lib/lib.dom.d.ts

Lines 25 to 31 in 2f47527

	interface Account {
	displayName: string;
	id: string;
	imageURL?: string;
	name?: string;
	rpDisplayName: string;
	}

🙁 Actual behavior

interface Account is present in lib.dom.d.ts without an explanation in comment or git commit message.

🙂 Expected behavior

There is no real DOM API with such interface => should be either removed or explained with a comment.

Maybe it was created by webscraping MDN? https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/account/ page exists and it displays info similar to the interface for logged in users ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's just really really outdated: https://www.w3.org/TR/2016/WD-webauthn-20160531/

I just found following statement in a closed issue:

Account is part of the Web Authentication DOM APIs (though it is still experimental). if you are not interested in DOM, consider using --lib es2015 this will get you the JS standard library for es2015 without the DOM.

But none of the Interfaces in https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Authentication_API has the same shape as Account from TypeScript, so I am confused about that...

Edit:

Oh, ok.
