- getItem(key) - Retrieves the value associated with the specified key.
- setItem(key, value) - Stores a value under the specified key.
- removeItem(key) - Deletes the specified key and its value.
- key(index) - Retrieves the value stored under the key located at the specified index.
- clear() - Deletes all keys and removes the JSON file.

- length (Property) - Returns the number of stored items.
javascript
import localStorage from '@david-fernando/nodelocalstorage';const { setItem, getItem, removeItem, key, clear, print } = localStorage();
// Setting items
setItem('username', 'David');
setItem('age', 28);
// Retrieving items
console.log(getItem('username')); // Output: David
// Print all items
print(); // Output: { username: 'David', age: 28 }
// Checking length
console.log(localStorage().length); // Output: 2
// Removing an item
removeItem('age');
// Getting keys by index
console.log(key(0)); // Output: David
// Clearing all data
clear();
`📁 How Data is Stored
