I wonder if localStorage can have boolean values instead of strings?
Only using JS, not JSON, if it's not possible or can be done in a different way via JS, please let me know, thanks

//How to set localStorage "test" to true?
test = localStorage.getItem("test");
localStorage.setItem("test", true);
if (test === true) {
alert("works");
} else {
alert("Broken");
}
/* String works fine.
test = localStorage.getItem("test");
localStorage.setItem("test", "hello");
if (test === "hello") {
alert("works");
} else {
alert("Broken");
}

No, Network Storage only stores strings. To store richer data, people often use JSON and stringify when storing and parsing when retrieving.
storage:
var test = true; localStorage.setItem("test", JSON.stringify(test));Search:
test = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem("test")); console.log(typeof test); // "boolean"You don't need JSON to get the boolean value, though; you can just use
""for false and any other string for true, since""is a " falsey" value (a value that is forced to false when treated as a boolean).
