idb-keyval VS localForage

idb-keyval is a great library for storing simple data in the browser using IndexedDB. secure-ls is great for storing data securely in Local Storage in the browser. There is also svelte-local-storage-store for saving and retrieving data to/from Local Storage in the browser easily with just a svelte store.

Preference for a different package that covers the same use case. For example, instead of a wrapper for the somewhat outdated localStorage and sessionStorage APIs such as store2, you could use the excellent idb-keyval, which wraps the IndexedDB API instead, giving significant performance and other advantages.

idb-keyval is an easy to use wrapper for IndexedDB https://github.com/jakearchibald/idb-keyval

I'm not sure this is clear cut. Take idb-keyval for instance. The exported names are get and set. If someone was import them individually I'd totally understand why they might them different names to make the context clear. Eg:

Not really an answer but have you looked into https://github.com/localForage/localForage

I may not be pointing you in the right direction but, please read about [IndexDB storage](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/IndexedDB\_API) method and packages like [localForage](https://localforage.github.io/localForage/) that use it under the hood.

LocalForage: this is a wrapper around IndexedDB, WebSQL, LocalStorage, and SessionStorage with a way to define more interfaces (called drivers) *for additional storage solutions. It does a great job handling all your serialization needs, it is **asynchronous **and handles a large set of data types. Its **API resembles Web Storage API* and it is ridiculously simple to learn.

Depending on what kind of storage requirements you have, LocalForage might be a good fit. It provides a unified API to access WebSQL, indexedDB or localStorage.

I find localForage is pretty helpful for this stuff https://github.com/localForage/localForage

localForage (https://localforage.github.io/localForage/) mirrors localStorage syntax, but uses IndexedDB in the background. If that's not supported, it uses WebSQL and then LocalStorage

This is why we have localForage.
