PHP Luminova: Client Side Cookie Management

Luminova's Cookie manager provides a convenient way to store data on the client-side, offering greater flexibility in managing cookie data compared to the SessionManager and CookieManager classes. With the Cookie class, you have the ability to configure the security access of the stored information according to your specific requirements.

The Cookie class stores data directly on the client-side, within cookies. This approach is particularly useful for scenarios where client-side storage is preferred or necessary, such as persisting user preferences, session tokens, or other application-specific data.
