This is a submission for DEV Challenge v24.03.20, One Byte Explainer: Browser API or Feature.
Explainer
Website party gone wild?
Tabs yelling updates?
Broadcast Channel API is your walkie-talkie!
Pick a channel, whisper your message, everyone in that room hears it.
Party on (with better communication)!
Additional Context
I wanted to explain the Broadcast Channel API in a fun and easy way, without all the confusing tech words. That way, even people who aren't programmers can understand it.

Everyone deserves to know cool stuff!

Good explanation
Nice explanation! This is one of the lesser known browser APIs, but believe it or not, I use it quite frequently. 😊
Sounds strange, isn't it? Jajaja, i don't know a person that it's using it. In my case, I had to learnt it for a specific requirement of a client.
Great to hear experiences, use cases and features you've implemented it. 😉
