A USBConnectionEvent. Inherits from Event.
In addition to the properties listed below, properties from the parent interface, Event, are available.
Once a USB device is connected, you might want to update the UI.
js
navigator.usb.addEventListener("connect", (event) => {
// Add event.device to the UI.
});
Alternatively, you can use the USB.onconnect event handler property to establish a handler for the connect event:
js
navigator.usb.onconnect = (event) => {
// Add event.device to the UI.
};
