I'm generating a file client-side, I have the data in hexadecimal and just want to let the user download the generated file.

var blob = new Blob([hexData], {type: "application/octet-stream"});
console.log(URL.createObjectURL(blob));

The resulting file is a plain-text file containing hex data in ASCII. How can I force the Blob to contain the binary data as is and not as text?

Derived from @Musa's solution above so I cannot take credit, but it's clearer to write this as an answer than my lame comment to his answer.

var byteArray = new Uint8Array(hexdata.match(/.{2}/g)
                              .map(e => parseInt(e, 16)));
var blob = new Blob([byteArray], {type: "application/octet-stream"});

Maybe this is easier to understand? I personally think it is clearer.
