There are a lot of applications that benefit from the screen not locking up automatically.

Say, a timer or stopwatch application, a guided meditation app, a live sports score app, navigation app, and much more!

For these applications on the web, browsers provide a simple but useful API called the Wake Lock API 🔒

This API, when invoked, prevents the screen from dimming or locking after a timeout period and makes it alive infinitely - till you release the lock.

⚠️ Do note that these API methods may throw errors, which is not captured here.
