idb.filesystem.js is a well tested JavaScript polyfill implementation of the HTML5 Filesystem API. It is intended for browsers that do not support the API natively.

The library works by using IndexedDB as its underlying storage layer. Essentially, this means that any browser supporting IndexedDB also supports the Filesystem API! All you need to do is make Filesystem API calls, and the rest is magic.
