In what way is it more complex than it has to be?

I don't work in front-end but whenever I've used localstorage for personal projects it's as simple as getting/setting a javascript object with keys & values.

It’s described in the first section of the article.

Care to elaborate? I just re-read the article and honestly still don't know what complexity OP was referring to.

Do you mean the fact that cookies and LocalStorage (or other APIs able to persist data) are often considered the same thing when using the term "cookies"?
