I have posted a number of articles related to ListBlock , ListView etc that you can use in HTML 5, web applications using Intel's XDK. Intel XDK's development platform for several frameworks were discontinued and Intel's effort is in the realm of Internet of Things devices and related applications. Microsoft's Universal Windows Framework apps are well supported by Microsoft and you could use it for not only Windows but for other devices as well. In the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) projects there is an advantage of one code that works on different device families (phone, tablet, desktop etc.).

My previous post showed how to store a single piece of information in Local Storage (Browser Storage). However instead of a single piece of data you want to store an array of items. Let us say your array has three elements, rose, jasmine and hyacinth and you want to store in an array named 'flowers'. The following page shows how you may store array and retrieve array elements using JavaScript. Each statement is commented (view image magnified, if necessary). ArrayStoreLocalStorage.png Place this page in IIS's wwwroot folder and browse. You can see the elements in the array in LocalStorage . ArrayStoreLocalStorage1.png You can see more clearly here in the Microsoft Edge's developer window. Data stored from the previous post is also seen. ArrayStoreLocalStorage2.png
