How to manage data storage on desktop?

[RubiTree]

On the desktop side, if I need to manage some new files generated, how should I store them? I haven't found relevant tutorials. These rules are similar to those on Android: https://developer.android.com/training/data-storage

I'm an Android Developer, so I don't know much about desktop development. I'm not sure if I need to find some desktop native related content to learn. So i first ask this question, thx for read.

Hello! What kind of files do you want to store? If it is just pictures, you can check imageviewer app as an example

I have similar questions, but what I want to know is whether I can use Jetpack DataStore directly on Desktop

androidx.datastore:datastore-core does not have Android dependceny but it is not working in Windows for now, I am using Realm as a solution and it's very promising.

I have some use cases for this one as well. I could use Preferences ...

Hmm, would this DataStore be built on Preferences, or is there more to it than that? There are some pretty sharp limitations of what Java lets you store.
