Map.prototype.keys()
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The keys() method of Map instances returns a new map iterator object that contains the keys for each element in this map in insertion order.
Try it
const map1 = new Map();
map1.set("0", "foo");
map1.set(1, "bar");
const iterator1 = map1.keys();
console.log(iterator1.next().value);
// Expected output: "0"
console.log(iterator1.next().value);
// Expected output: 1
