Also in the URL. Both are totally okay, and even desirable. We’ve become so accustomed to managing state in abstractions of the DOM that this seems like a crazy idea, but it has led to all kinds of pain points from complexity to, well, the DOM and URL not always reflecting the state of the application accurately. It’s pretty awful. The better we can keep state out of abstractions without losing maintainability or performance, the better.
