+title: PersistedState
+description:
+  Create reactive state that is persisted and synchronized across browser sessions and tabs using
+  Web Storage.
+category: State
+---
+
+<script>
+import Demo from '$lib/components/demos/persisted-state.svelte';
+</script>
+
+## Demo
+
+<Demo />
+
+## Usage
+
+`PersistedState` allows for syncing and persisting state across browser sessions using
+`localStorage` or `sessionStorage`. Initialize `PersistedState` by providing a unique key and an
+initial value for the state.
+
+```svelte
+<script lang="ts">
+	import { PersistedState } from "runed";
+
+	const count = new PersistedState("count", 0);
+</script>
+
+<div>
+	<button onclick={() => count.current++}>Increment</button>
+	<button onclick={() => count.current--}>Decrement</button>
+	<button onclick={() => (count.current = 0)}>Reset</button>
+	<p>Count: {count.current}</p>
+</div>
+```
+
+`PersistedState` also includes an `options` object.
+
+```ts
+{
+	storage: 'session', // Specifies whether to use local or session storage. Default is 'local'.
+	syncTabs: false,   // Indicates if changes should sync across tabs. Default is true.
+	serializer: {
+		serialize: superjson.stringify,   // Custom serialization function. Default is JSON.stringify.
+		deserialize: superjson.parse      // Custom deserialization function. Default is JSON.parse.
+	}
+}
+```
