Keep the Board After Refreshing

Keep the Board After Refreshing

Your task manager now changes state correctly, but the browser forgets those changes when the page is refreshed.

This module adds persistence without introducing a backend. You will use the browser’s localStorage API to store the same task array that already drives the board.

You will build the feature in three stages:

  1. create a small function that saves tasks
  2. call it whenever the task state changes
  3. load saved tasks when the application starts

By the end of this module

You should be able to:

  • save the current task array to localStorage
  • restore saved tasks when the page loads
  • keep create, delete, and drag-and-drop changes after refresh
