Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.

.
Examples
let immediateID = setImmediate(() => { // Run some code } document.getElementById("button") .addEventListener(() => { clearImmediate(immediateID); });
