TheFormData interface provides a way to construct a set of key/value pairs representing form fields and their values, which can be sent using thefetch(),XMLHttpRequest.send() ornavigator.sendBeacon() methods. It uses the same format a form would use if the encoding type were set to"multipart/form-data".

You can also pass it directly to theURLSearchParams constructor if you want to generate query parameters in the way a<form> would do if it were using simpleGET submission.

An object implementingFormData can directly be used in afor...of structure, instead ofentries():for (const p of myFormData) is equivalent tofor (const p of myFormData.entries()).
