LocalStorage, Scalable

(anonymous)

user UX

Need

Drupal (mostly) treats anonymous users the same.

Drupal go-to is data in the DB (ok: SOLR, memcache).

Neat

Session-only data at scale.

Anonymous user profiling/personalization.

LocalStorage in browser. Scalable anonymous user UX

By Josh Lind

LocalStorage in browser. Scalable anonymous user UX

Are you already or trying to use localStorage in browser? Let's chat. Much of Drupal treats anonymous users all the same, we also rely on the DB (or memcache) to store everything. There is a better way. Due to scaling the browser is fine place to stash data. LocalStorage can also enhance anonymous UX through profiling and non-permanent saving.
