SharedWorkerGlobalScope: close() method - Web APIs | MDN

SharedWorkerGlobalScope: close() method
Limited availability
This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.
The close() method of the SharedWorkerGlobalScope interface discards any tasks queued in the SharedWorkerGlobalScope's event loop, effectively closing this particular scope.
Syntax
js
close()
Parameters
None.
Return value
None (undefined).
Examples
If you want to close your worker instance from inside the worker itself, you can call the following:
js
close();
close() and self.close() are effectively equivalent — both represent close() being called from inside the worker's inner scope.
Note:
There is also a way to stop the worker from the main thread: the Worker.terminate method.
