Check and use appropriate storage adapter for browser (sessionStorage, cookies, memory)
npm install @comicrelief/session-storage-fallbackThis repository was cloned from github.com/ripeworks/local-storage-fallback due to a need to fallback from session storage rather than local storage.
``
$ npm install session-storage-fallback
`js
import storage from 'session-storage-fallback' // if you use es6 or typescript
// use object destructuring when using require()
// const {storage} = require('local-storage-fallback')
// Use storage directly
storage.setItem('foo', 'bar');
storage.getItem('foo'); // bar
// Or shim window.sessionStorage
if (!('sessionStorage' in window)) {
window.sessionStorage = storage;
}

With browser settings like "Private Browsing" it has become a problem to rely on a working window.sessionStorage, even in newer browsers. Even though it may exist, it will throw exceptions when trying to use setItem or getItem. This module will run appropriate checks to see what browser storage mechanism might be available, and then expose it. It uses the same API as sessionStorage so it should work as a drop-in replacement in most cases.
* CookieStorage __has__ storage limits. Be careful here.MemoryStorage` will __not__ persist between page loads. This is more or less a stop-gap to prevent page crashes, but may be sufficient for websites that don't do full page loads.
