+
+The Web IDL {DOMException} class. These errors are thrown by web-platform APIs
+in Node.js such as [`fetch()`][], {AbortController}, {AbortSignal}, and Web
+Streams. For details, see also [`Class: DOMException`][] on the Globals page.
+
+The [`domException.name`][] property identifies the type of the exception (for
+example, `'AbortError'`). Unlike most errors in Node.js, the
+[`domException.code`][] property is a number that corresponds to a
+[legacy error code name][Web IDL error names] (for example, `20` for
+`ABORT_ERR`).
+
+Node.js-specific APIs that support {AbortSignal} (such as
+[`events.once()`][]) throw a Node.js `AbortError` (a native {errors.Error} with
+`name` of `'AbortError'` and `code` of [`'ABORT_ERR'`][ABORT_ERR]) rather than a
+{DOMException}. To identify abort errors in either case, checking
+`err?.name === 'AbortError'` is sufficient.
+
+See also [`ABORT_ERR`][].
