  • Display data received from the form to the UI :
    • How to read data from the form
      1. Get the form element
      2. Get the value of each input field and store it in a variable in the submit event handler in a form of an object book

3. Store and get the data from the localStorage 🏪

What is localStorage?

localStorage is a property of the window object. It allows you to store data in the browser. The data will not be deleted when the browser is closed. It will be deleted only when you clear the browser cache.

How to use the localStorage?

  • How to store data to localStorage
    1. Convert the book object to a string using JSON.stringify(book)
    2. Use localStorage.setItem('books', bookString) to store the string to localStorage
  • How to get data from localStorage
    1. Use localStorage.getItem('books') to get the string from localStorage
    2. Convert the string to an object using JSON.parse(bookString)
    3. Display the data to the UI

PLEASE NOTE: 🙏 Before you get to the next step, you should have your application working properly. You should be able to add a book to the table and the data should be stored in the localStorage. You should be able to see the data in the table when you refresh the page.

4. Delete a book from the table 😊

  • Add a delete button to each row in the table

  • Add an event listener to the delete button

  • Delete the row from the table
