TPE DOM/Storage
Introduction
Over the years the web has grown various APIs that can be used for storage, e.g. IndexedDB, localStorage, cache API, but it's lack of a means for managing storage across different APIs easily. This project aims at providing a unified architecture for storage on the web so that these APIs could honor the same rule. In addition, this project is to enable applications to more effectively manage their storage.

- Smart filtering algorithm to decrease pop-up interference
- Integrating storage types into QuotaManager
Risk & Mitigation plan
