how to generate and store a key pair?

[koo5]

your documentation states:

const privateKey = await parseJwk({
  alg: 'ES256',
  crv: 'P-256',
  kty: 'EC',
  d: 'VhsfgSRKcvHCGpLyygMbO_YpXc7bVKwi12KQTE4yOR4',
  x: 'ySK38C1jBdLwDsNWKzzBHqKYEE5Cgv-qjWvorUXk9fw',
  y: '_LeQBw07cf5t57Iavn4j-BqJsAD1dpoz8gokd3sBsOo'
})

however, i cannot find anything on how to arrive at this "Jwk". When i follow the example on https://github.com/panva/jose/blob/main/docs/functions/_util_generate_key_pair_.generatekeypair.md#readme ,
the output is :

PublicKeyObject { [Symbol(kKeyType)]: 'public' }
PrivateKeyObject { [Symbol(kKeyType)]: 'private' }

Not easy to find that info, this could be in the FAQ

import generateKeyPair from 'jose/util/generate_key_pair';
import fromKeyLike from 'jose/jwk/from_key_like';

{...}

const keyPair = await generateKeyPair(alg, {
  modulusLength: 2048, // default value
});

const privateJwk = await fromKeyLike(keyPair.privateKey);
const publicJwk = await fromKeyLike(keyPair.publicKey);

Why FAQ when all of this is in the documentation. All the modules that do this are described by what they do. Furthermore the KeyLike type links to platform specific means of obtaining KeyLike objects as well.

Comming from jose@2 where we can generate a jwk with only a function

import { JWK } from 'jose';

{...}

const key = await JWK.generate(kty, alg, { use: 'sig' });

On jose@3 I was looking for a similar function. Or at least a code sample to help me in the migration.

I didn't look Parsing (JWK to KeyLike) and Conversion (KeyLike to JWK) because from what I understood I didn't know how to get the KeyLike.

I think that it's not very explicit that Asymmetric Key Pair Generation is the way to generate a KeyLike
