[Question][try.squeak.org] Is it possible to get/store values in localStorage of the browser

Hello Bert

I wonder if and how it is possible to get/store values of the
localStorage of the browser.

Or are there other mechanisms to save state between subsequent calls
to work with a Squeak image file in the browser?

Regards

Hannes

I found the paper which probably has the answer

You can save the image, and files are persisted, too.

This uses IndexedDB for storage behind the scenes. And yes that's described in the paper, but as a user you shouldn't have to worry about the implementation. That's the VM wizards' job ;)
