Module 1: HTML Character Entities & Web Storage API Theory

Encoding reserved characters and storing browser client data.

Core Theory & Principles

  • Character entities replace reserved characters (&lt; for <, &gt; for >, &amp; for &).
  • UTF-8 is the standard universal character encoding covering international symbols and emojis.
  • Web Storage API: localStorage stores data without expiration; sessionStorage clears data when tab closes.

Practical Key Takeaways

Mastering HTML Character Entities & Web Storage API Theory builds fundamental development capability. Review practical code and outputs carefully.
