JupyterLite is a JupyterLab distribution that runs in the browser
I think JupyterLite is using localStorage by default. But there are File System APIs for WASM and some external projects[0], I don't think they're yet integrated.

5 Insane Features in my OS in the Browser!!! 🤯
I started my file system with BrowserFS which allowed me to setup IndexedDb as the main writeable location. When in Firefox Private mode it switches to an in memory file system which does not persist. Using BrowserFS also meant I could open ZIP and ISO files as if they were folders. I create a JSON file on build that has the initial public folder directory structure which is used as the readable portion of the file system via plain HTTP GET requests. I've also added the ability to extract RAR files, although I don't currently have it linked to File Explorer to see it's contents before extracting. I can also make and extract ZIP/ISO via fflate.

I've turned my personal website into a Web Desktop Environment and added client side Git to the terminal!
Thanks for the interest! To do git I used https://isomorphic-git.org/, the terminal is backed by https://xtermjs.org/ and the file system that it writes to is coming from https://github.com/jvilk/BrowserFS. This is all part of my side project (https://github.com/DustinBrett/daedalOS) to build a web desktop environment.
