What data types does IndexedDb support?

Question

I have searched, but can't seem to find anything about the data types that IndexedDB supports. I know that it supports basic Javascript objects, but what if I want to store an instance of an object or a blob of data? Does IndexedDB support anything more than simple objects or does it have data types to assist in doing creative things?

Thank you

IndexedDB use Structured Cloning Algorithm to serialize the data. Basically it can save all javascript data types in plain object, in nested or in circular reference.
