I'd like to ask why big players like facebook, google still uses cookies if localstorage is much better and secure for same.
They are not the same thing at all: you can use them in a similar way, but they serve different purposes.

How to get client's IP address using JavaScript? [closed]
(31 answers)
Closed 6 months ago.
I'm looking for a resolution, how can I get user public IP using only my page. My assumption is not connect to external applications to keep application safe. Page has been built with a ReactJS. Is it possible to do from browser and only JavaScript level? Or do I have to create my custom API to get user IP?
Thanks you advance.

Is there a way I can stop people from seeing the Javascript Source code that includes the Server API key and server information?
No, there is not.
You can obfuscate and minify your code, but that doesn't help since your users can look at their browser's Network Inspector instead.

Is possible read the browser history with Javascript? If the answer is Yes, how can I do it?
I want to read it and save it in a JS variable.
No. Other sites visited by a user are their business, not the business of every website they visit. Browsers do not expose that information to web sites.
Browsers go to pretty serious lengths to plug anything that could leak a user's history to websites
In general history is protected by the browser against javascript accessing it except through back and forward functionality.

But if you are using HTML5 it is even easier.

Modifying Local Files Using HTML5 and JavaScript
I know we can read a local file that has been selected by the user, but is there the ability to rename or write to local files in javascript?
There is no way to natively write the filesystem in Javascript, for obvious security reasons.
However, if you must, there is an ActiveX object (Only in IE). It's Scripting.FileSystemObject.
You will find the documentation about that beast on the msdn site.
