qstate

Save state in query string

Why?

Did you ever almost complete a form and refreshed it by accident and all your data were lost forever?

That should not be the case anymore!

With the help of this library, you can save state that you consider important in query string and improve the UX of your app.

Let's say you have a modal with some kind of form, you can track that form automatically and save all states in query string. If the user refreshes the app, you can restore the previous state from query string so your user doesn't need to fill it again.

Usage

import { save, trackForm } from 'qstate';

// Save manually
save({ key: 'qstate', value: 'awesome' });

// Track and save form state automatically
trackForm(document.querySelector('form'));
