Dataset not filtering on ready

What is this —> let searchFromHomePage = + ‘1’ <— ???
The new style how to put a NUMBER into a variable ?

However, it doesn’t even matter, if you put a → NUMBER<–, or a → STRING ← into the → SESSION-STORAGE!

At the end you will get —> a —> STRING!

import wixStorage from 'wix-storage';

$w.onReady(function () {
    let searchFromHomePage1 = 1; 
    console.log(searchFromHomePage1+" / "+typeof searchFromHomePage1);
    wixStorage.session.setItem("searchFromHomePage", searchFromHomePage1);
    let result = wixStorage.session.getItem("searchFromHomePage");
    console.log(result + " / " + typeof result);
});

How to generate NUMBERS? →

let myNumber = Number("1");

How to generate STRINGS ? —>

let myString = String(1);

Try this one…

$w.onReady(function() {
    $w("#propertiesDataset").onReady(() => {
        //------------------------- declaration-process of variables--------------------------------------
        let searchIndustry = session.getItem("industrySearch");
        let searchCity = session.getItem("citySearch");
        let searchStateProvince = session.getItem("stateProvinceSearch");
        let searchFromHomePageResult = session.getItem("searchFromHomePage");
        //------------------------- declaration-process of variables--------------------------------------

        // ----------- filling of DropDowns -------------------------------------------
        $w("#industry").value = searchIndustry;
        $w("#city").value = searchCity;
        $w("#stateProvince").value = searchStateProvince;
        $w("#text200").text = searchFromHomePageResult;
        // ----------- filling of DropDowns -------------------------------------------

        if ($w("#text200").text === searchFromHomePageResult) {
            let filter = wixData.filter()

            if (searchStateProvince) {filter = filter.eq("stateprovince", searchStateProvince)}
            if (searchCity) {filter = filter.eq("city", searchCity)}
            if (searchIndustry) {filter = filter.hasAll("industry2", searchIndustry)}
            $w("#propertiesDataset").setFilter(filter).then(() => {session.clear();});
        }
    });
});

Just the following one seems to be strange…

if ($w("#text200").text===searchFromHomePageResult){.....

Why not also directly …???

if (searchFromHomePageResult === "1"){......
