Abstract
A natural complement to offline applications is client-side data storage. HTML5 defines some useful JavaScript APIs for storing data in the browser, ranging from simple name/value pairs to using a JavaScript object database. In this chapter, I show you how to build applications that rely on persistently stored data, including details of how to use such data in an offline web application.
