The polyfill maps the Web Authentication API on top of the Microsoft Edge preliminary implementation. The polyfill is up-to-date with the 5th W3C working draft of the Web Authentication API specification.
The Microsoft Edge preliminary implementation is available on all Windows 10 computers that have been updated to the Windows Anniversary Update. You can check the version number by clicking Setting->System->About and check if the OS build is above or equal to 14393.
This implementation inherits its limitations on parameter values from the Edge implementation.
Notes on limitations: The polyfill only works if the user has created a PIN (and optionally Hello gestures) for themselves in Settings->Accounts->Sign-in options. Otherwise, a error will be thrown.
create:
- Few parameters are ignored: challenge, timeout, rpId, excludeList, and authenticatorSelection.
- The returned signature is different between the current Web Authentication API and the polyfill.
get:
- Few parameters are ignored: parameters, timeout, and rpId.
- The returned signature is different between the current Web Authentication API and the polyfill.
If you found a bug with the polyfill, open an issue and we will see how we can do that! If you want to collaborate just make sure your code passes the ESLint and JSCS rules we've set up!
