Writing file to desktop using HTML5 FileSystem API

by

Please note that Filesystem API is no longer part of the standard’s specification, as specified at:
http://www.w3.org/TR/file-system-api/

EDIT:
Quoting the specification in case the link changes:
“File API: Directories and System
W3C Working Group Note 24 April 2014

Work on this document has been discontinued and it should not be referenced or used as a basis for implementation.“

(This does not relate to the question directly, but it is essential to know not to use the FileSystem API further.)

“In April 2014, it was announced on public-webapps that the Filesystem API spec should be considered dead. Other browsers have showed little interest in implementing it.”
