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

📁 How Data is Stored
Data is saved in a file called localStorage.json
in the root directory of this library
