Introduction
When we talk about storage, most of the developers think about storing data on the server on some database. HTML5 really makes a leap forward on what can be passed around and saved to the client side. Whether is for some temporary use, caching, or full offline usage of entire apps, client-side storage is becoming more and more common.
All of these great features that enable us to store data at the client side making the applications ultimately faster, more usable and reachable. Even in cloud-based solutions we still need some local data that will make the user experience nicer.
The chapter covers some of the features that are related to HTML5 and are about data storage.
