I am not a specialist of cookies VS localStorage, the only advantage of cookies is the possibility to set an expiration date ?

good idea !

> with a note counter server-side.

I'm not sure I understood this part. I imagined this would require storing an ‘anonymous visitor ID’ in the cookie and creating a table on the server to associate this ID with the notes created by the visitor? but maybe I've misunderstood?
