JavaScript Cookies vs Local Storage vs Session Storage

[@oldbootz]

and on the eve of the year 10000 there was the great cookie expiration crisis...

July 2024. I was having a hard time working on NextJs, trying to learn how the server rendered pages were accessing my local data before actually generating (I did not want a client page), I did not know that cookies are sent with my requests. Now I can process some data on the server specific for the user, as I am getting the user email from the request as a cookie. I love this channel.

Man, you're as good as The Net Ninja, which is my current source of information. I hope you'll get many subscribers soon, your style is clear, short and to the point. Thanks!

Best cookie video I've seen. You can tell this guy has a deep knowledge of the material with the way he effortlessly explains all the moving pieces. I know this is written with for Devs, but it's also a really good sort of introductory deep-dive into cookies. He did a great job of explaining the different types of cookies, how to identify them, what they do, and the reasons for why they are needed. Most concise yet jam packed with info video on any subject I've seen recently. Surprised to find it on the subject of web cookies, as in my experience it has been difficult to find videos that aren't either too shallow or too deep in their scope. This was perfect and I feel like I can take the next step without any huge gaps in my understanding now. Great job, thank you!

3:31 mid 2020, Apple(iOS and desktop Safari, is implementing a new localstorage rule. Its a game changer. "Specifically, Safari will erase IndexedDB, LocalStorage, Media keys, SessionStorage, and Service Worker registrations after seven days if the user does not interact with the associated website during this period."

Encountered an interesting bug when working with redux-persist recently. Redux-persist was working just fine on my desktop computer by saving the current redux state to my web browser's local storage. I pulled from my local git repo on my mac and begin implementing a new action for my reducer. Next thing I know, all of my redux related functions are causing the application to break. As it turns out, I had created a logic error within my reducer, but fixing the logic error itself did not solve the problem. Why? Because redux-persist had already saved that logic error into that browsers local storage. Local storage also does not automatically purge itself, so the solution was for me to delete that browsers local storage and then re-run the application. Lucky for me, I had watched this useful video before using redux-persist to figure out how local storage actually works, as I had not previously used it in the past. Great learning experience and the video really helped!

This is fantastic, I've been scratching my head a lot lately trying to differentiate session, storage, and cookies and then lining it up with session on the server side. I've started looking at how other websites do it through the browser dev tools and cookies seem to be the weapon of choice.

In my opinion, the three main difference between localStorage, sessionStorage and cookie are: localStorage: It will save your data forever even if you close your tab sessionStorage: It will save your data temporary and when you close your tab, your data will be disappeared cookie: Save your data with an expiry date Am I right ?

Excellent. very clear to explain the concepts. Can you please give a concrete example of the 3 storage when to use it for what purpose? Thank you so much. You rock.

[@WebDevSimplified]

Cookies are something that is used a lot for authentication since it always gets sent to the server. Session is for things like a shopping cart that will go away when you stop browsing the site, and local storage is for things like a todo list that should stick around even after you leave the site.

[@mikedqin]

@@WebDevSimplified Great, my Amazon shopping cart is persisted I guess whenever I log in, and I can see items are still there, but I guess Amazon use case is different. When to use the Cache store? I know service worker uses it. Thank you for your prompt reply.

[@WebDevSimplified]

@@mikedqin The only time I have seen that used is with service workers. Other than that I don't have any specific use case for it.
