The TextDecoder interface represents a decoder for a specific that is a specific character encoding, like utf-8, iso-8859-2, cp1261, gbk, etc. A decoder takes a stream of bytes as input emits a stream of code points. For a more scalable, non-native see StringView – a C-like representation of strings based on arrays.

Constructor.
The TextDecoder() constructor returns a newly created web.TextDecoder
object for the encoding specified in parameter.
utfLabelOptional
Is a dom.DOMString
, defaulting to "utf-8", containing the label of the encoder. Each label is associated with a specific encoding type:

optionsOptional Is a TextDecoderOptions dictionary with the property:
fatal
A Boolean flag indicating if the web.TextDecoder.decode()
