This module provides convenient storage abstractions on top of extension local storage. These abstractions minimize code duplication and opportunities for error, and allow us to switch the underlying storage implementation in future.
Rally studies are welcome to choose any WebExtensions compatible storage option, including this module, extension local storage, IndexedDB, or an IndexedDB wrapper (e.g., Dexie.js).
