Is it possible to use local storage rather than a database collection to dynamically populate a wix Repeater container?

Thanks

Reviving this post because I discovered something.

Yes you can use local storage to populate a repeater. However there are issues. My intent was to load repeater data on my landing page if there is downtime, so I can pass it to a repeater later and save performance.

The issue is two fold. First, there is a 50KB limit on storage. So you can pass data but definitely not a huge amount. Second, you have to pass the data as a JSON, then parse it when you want to reuse it for repeater. The time necessary to parse the data I found virtually negligible versus just re pulling from the data. So it really didn’t make a huge performance impact.

If anyone has any other thoughts on innovative ways to use storage to
Boost performance, I’m all ears.

Thanks!
