*LocalStorage -- stores data with no expiration date. The data will not be deleted when the browser closed.*SessionStorage -- stores data for only one session. The data is deleted when the browser is closed.

HTML5 There are two types of web storage Api
1. Local Storage
2. session Storage
Local Storage:
1. Used to store data on client side.
2. It has no expiration time.
3. Data in the localStorage exists always till the user manually delets it.
  Ex:
  Setting Local Storage:
  LocalStorage.setItem(“Key”,”Value”);
  Getting Local Storage:
  LocalStorage.getItem(“Key”);
Session Storage:
1. Used to store data on client side.
2. Data in the Session Storage till exists, current tab is open.
3. If we close current tab our data will erase automatically from the session Storage.
  Ex:
  Setting Session Storage:
  SessionStorage.setItem(“Key”,”Value”);
  Getting Session Storage:
  SessionStorage.getItem(“Key”);

1)Local Storage:The Local Storage is designed for storage that spans multiple windows, and lasts beyond the current session. In particular, Web applications may wish to store megabytes of user data, such as entire user-authored documents or a user's mailbox, on the client side for performance reasons.2)Session Storage:The Session Storage is designed for scenarios where the user is carrying out a single transaction, but could be carrying out multiple transactions in different windows at the same time.
