After learning HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, what is the next best step for learning how to save inputs and changes from the user during a session (so that it will still be available when the script runs again)? Would this be using a database or storage in the browser? I'm trying to figure out which Treehouse tracks I should learn next.

This is a website I am working on that uses localStorage:
http://media.petervann.com/webs/moneyband/set_list.php
The site has a band setlist. The user can make an Event List and the data persists in localStorage.
From what I have tested, the Event List will persist until the user deletes it or the browser's cookies/cache is cleared, even if you close the browser and/or reboot the computer.
BTW, If you haven't done them yet, I recommend these Treehouse Tracks:
Front End Web Development
Full Stack Javascript
Learn React
I hope that helps.
Stay safe and happy coding!
