Chrome doesn't support raw format for EC private key.

Script

var keys = await crypto.subtle.generateKey({name: "ECDSA", namedCurve: "P-256"}, true, ["sign", "verify"]);
var raw = await crypto.subtle.exportKey("raw", keys.privateKey); // Error

var raw = await crypto.subtle.exportKey("raw", keys.publicKey);
console.log(raw);

@peculiar/webcrypto throws AsnSchemaValidationError. Maybe it should be better to use a custom error for that.

AsnSchemaValidationError: Data does not match to PublicKeyInfo ASN1 schema.

@armfazh Do you have any ideas how EC private key raw must look like?

For P-256, it's an arraybuffer of 32 bytes.

Private keys cannot be exported in raw format, but they can be exported as jwk or pkcs8.
