Currently, I am in the process of developing a website and am interested in implementing a feature that allows users to track which articles they have read. I am considering adding a small circle next to each article heading to signify whether it has been read or not, with the former option being the most logical choice.
Has anyone had experience with this kind of functionality before? Does it have a specific name? I am thinking that a cookie may be helpful in tracking this information, but I am also considering whether a simple CSS/JS solution that only lasts for the session would be sufficient.
If anyone has any thoughts or examples related to this topic, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you! R
