The '''Indexed Database API''' (commonly referred to as '''IndexedDB''') is a [[JavaScript]] API ([[application programming interface]] (API) provided by [[web browser]]s for managing a [[NoSQL]] [[database]] of [[JSON]] objects. It is a standard maintained by the [[World Wide Web Consortium]] (W3C).<ref>{{cite web|url = http://www.w3.org/TR/IndexedDB/|title = IndexedDB API|publisher = W3.org|date = |accessdate = 2015-12-04}}</ref>
