+### copyToClipboard
+
+Copy a string to the clipboard. Only works as a result of user action (i.e. inside a `click` event listener).
+
+Create a new `<textarea>` element, fill it with the supplied data and add it to the HTML document.
+Use `Selection.getRangeAt()`to store the selected range (if any).
+Use `document.execCommand('copy')` to copy to the clipboard.
+Remove the `<textarea>` element from the HTML document.
+Finally, use `Selection().addRange()` to recover the original selected range (if any).
+
+```js
+const copyToClipboard = str => {
+  const el = document.createElement('textarea');
+  el.value = str;
+  el.setAttribute('readonly', '');
+  el.style.position = 'absolute';
+  el.style.left = '-9999px';
+  document.body.appendChild(el);
+  const selected = document.getSelection().rangeCount > 0 ? document.getSelection().getRangeAt(0) : false;
+  el.select();
+  document.execCommand('copy');
+  document.body.removeChild(el);
+  if (selected) {
+    document.getSelection().removeAllRanges();
+    document.getSelection().addRange(selected);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+```js
+copyToClipboard('Lorem ipsum'); // 'Lorem ipsum' copied to clipboard.
