About Simple Note Taker

Use Session or Local Storage

You can switch between storing data in the Local Storage or the Session Storage by clicking on the associate link i.e. "Local Storage" to use Local Storage, or "Session Storage" to use Session Storage.

Use the dev tools to view the Application Storage to see the data stored in the browser.

• Session Storage is cleared when the browser is closed.
• Local Storage is persisted with the browser profile.

Adding Notes

Validation is performed when adding the note details.

• Title must not be blank
• Note must not be blank

Click the Add button to store the note and show it in the browser.

Managing Storage in Edit List View

By default the stored data is not loaded into the browser.

Press:

• Load to load in the data from the currently chosen storage.
• Show to show the data in the browser
• Clear All to clear all of the stored data

Managing Storage in Manage List View

All data is loaded into the browser when editing in Manage List view.

Note details are truncated to show in the details summary when it is a long note.

Press:

• [x] to Delete an item
• [Edit] to Edit an item in the Edit List View
• expand the details view to see the note

JavaScript Hacking

The main note taking application code is accessible in the document, so it is possible to work with the loaded and stored data entirely from the console using JavaScript.

This might help with the creation of test data and automating without using the UI.
