What is a Web Worker?
Web workers are a powerful feature in #JavaScript that allow you to run scripts
in the background, separate from the main thread of your web application.

Web Workers makes it possible to run a script operation in a background thread separate from the main execution thread of a web application. The advantage of this is that laborious processing can be performed in a separate thread, allowing the main (usually the UI) thread to run without being blocked/slowed down.
