@ -121,3 +121,10 @@ set of defaults for bundling our app into a static export which we can then
deploy to our webserver. In addition, the Next.js page router is convenient.
Apart from this, while we use a few tidbits from Next.js here and there, overall
our apps are regular React SPAs, and are not particularly tied to Next.
### Vite
For some of our newer code, we have started to use [Vite](https://vitejs.dev).
It is more lower level than Next, but the bells and whistles it doesn't have are
the bells and whistles (and the accompanying complexity) that we don't need in
some cases.

@ -8,9 +8,32 @@ cleared when the browser tab is closed.
The data in local storage is tied to the Document's origin (scheme + host).
Some things that get stored here are:
* Details about the logged in user, in particular their user id and a auth token
we can use to make API calls on their behalf.
* Various user preferences
## Session Storage
Data tied to the browser tab's lifetime.
We store the user's encryption key here.
## Indexed DB
We use the LocalForage library for storing things in Indexed DB. This library
falls back to localStorage in case Indexed DB storage is not available.
Indexed DB allows for larger sizes than local/session storage, and is generally
meant for larger, tabular data.
## OPFS
OPFS is used for caching entire files when we're running under Electron (the Web
Cache API is used in the browser).
As it name suggests, it is an entire filesystem, private for us ("origin"). In
is not undbounded though, and the storage is not guaranteed to be persistent (at
least with the APIs we use), hence the cache designation.
