+## Web Storage API
+
+As of Deno 1.10, the Web Storage API (`localStorage` & `sessionStorage`) was
+introduced, which through `localStorage` allows persistent storage, whereas
+`sessionStorage` is a non-persistent memory-based storage.
+
+To use persistent storage, you need to pass the `--location` flag. The location
+for persistent storage is listed in `deno info`, and additionally passing the
+`--location` will give you the path for the specified origin.
