Great video! Liked how you summarized all in one table. I don’t think this is true though 1:37 cookies are not stored on the server. They can be set by the server with a response header (set-cookie) and client sees that header and store it in the browser. The other way is through javascript document.cookie. But yeah only on the browser last time I checked.

In my dev tools for Firefox, all the storage data is held in a separate "Storage" tab, not Application.

Great video, one question : what would you recommend going for, if I want a popup as an example, to not appear if the user already seen it in the last 30 days ?
cheers

I can imagine many usecases for cookies, but none for localstorage or sessionstorage. Did you explain that somewhere? Grtz.

[dysonlu]

Are cookies really stored on the server too? I always thought they were stored locally, on the computer running the web browser. From what I read, there is another server-side storage type called "session", which is typically used in conjunction with the browser's cookies but not to be confused with browser cookies.

5:07 My god that typing speed! We don't usually get to see it since he copy-pastes or something. Or was it maybe sped up?

[hk_build]

thanks for video..!! concepts are clear ....could u tell me the real time usage of session storage

[shiro]

huh... I thought localStorage would be something difficult to learn, thanks!

[DrProductivity]

please do not use any of these to hold sensitive data but rather use a correct and secure session management variant
