Is this just for the current website, or everything? – BJury Sep 23 '15 at 18:46

1It is for the current website, as localstorage is bound to it. For chromium based browsers the local storage is now behind: `Right Click Page > Inspect Element > Application -> Local Storage` – dahrens Dec 16 '16 at 11:42

For Firefox use Firebug add-on. Open Firebug. Click on Console. On the command line type in:
localStorage
For development you can also edit local storage in Firebug using dot notation. For example:
localStorage.myVar = "hello"
localStorage.clear()
localStorage.removeItem("myVar")
In Firefox 19+ you can inspect localStorage directly from the console without Firebug:
inspect(localStorage)
This will pull up a panel displaying the key/value pairs

Firebug with [FireStorage](https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/addon/firestorage-plus/) works well. – Cees Timmerman Dec 04 '15 at 09:39

In Firefox the data is saved to the webappstore.sqlite in the FF profile folder. You can view it with the SQLite Manager, an addon for FF.

In Chrome pull down More Tools->Developer Tools. In the panel that appears click the Application tab. You will see LocalStorage in the subsequent menu. You can delete, Edit etc....
