The algorithm is specifically fast and capable of working with polygons of all types: multipolygons (without cascading), polygons with holes, self-intersecting polygons and degenerate polygons with overlapping edges.

const gj1 = { "type": "Feature", ..., "geometry": { "type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [ [ [x, y], ... ] ]};
const gj2 = { "type": "Feature", ..., "geometry": { "type": "MultiPolygon", "coordinates": [ [ [ [x, y], ...] ] ]};

};.intersection(<Geometry>, <Geometry>) => <Geometry>.union(<Geometry>, <Geometry>) => <Geometry>.diff(<Geometry>, <Geometry>) => <Geometry>.xor(<Geometry>, <Geometry>) => <Geometry>
<Geometry> is GeoJSON 'Polygon' or 'MultiPolygon' coordinates structure.
<Operation> is an enum of { INTERSECTION: 0, UNION: 1, DIFFERENCE: 2, XOR: 3 } in case you have to decide programmatically
which operation do you need
