Access and manipulate the browser session history, enabling smooth navigation and state management without page reloads.

Basic Navigation

Navigate through browser history using methods like back(), forward(), and go(). These methods allow web applications to programmatically move through the user's browsing history, similar to when users click the browser's back and forward buttons.

State Management

Use pushState() and replaceState() to add or modify history entries with associated state objects. These methods allow web applications to update the URL and store data without triggering page reloads, while the popstate event enables responding to history navigation.
