title: Getting desktop device id using javascript
body: <p>I am working on a <code>jump to page short cut</code> option in the login page of one of my projects. This will basically lists a few pages in a dropdown of the login page. User can choose one among them to navigate to that page directly post login. I have a <code>personalise jump to page short cut</code> page and user can add his favourite pages to this dropdown. Now the question is about the storage. I was initially planning to store these favourite pages in the local storage. Since it is browser specific, if the user opens the app in another browser, the data won't be available. My second thought was to get a unique id for the desktop and store the data in the server using this unique desktop / machine id. Is there any way to get this id using JS / Angular JS. </p>
