The API is designed to be as JavaScript-standard as possible, so `XzReadableStream` is a [`ReadableStream`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ReadableStream) instance, which in turn means you can feed it into a [`Response`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Response), and in turn get a blob, an ArrayBuffer, JSON data, or anything else that you browser can do with a `Response`.

A nodejs example

```js
const buf = readFileSync(path);
const decompressedResponse = new Response(
new XzReadableStream((new Blob([buf]).stream()))
);
return decompressedResponse.text();
```

## What about `.tar.xz` files?

Since the `.xz` format only represents one file, it's common for people to bundle up a collection of files as `.tar`, and then compress this to `.tar.xz`.
