The next system we will look at is the TempStore (temporary store).
The tempstore is a key/value, session-like storage system for keeping temporary data across multiple requests.

Another key feature of the tempstore is that entries can have an expiration date, at which point they get automatically cleared. So that user had better hurry up.
There are two kinds of tempstore APIs: a private and a shared one. The difference between the two is that with the first one, entries strictly belong to a single user, whereas with the second one, they can be shared between users. For example...
