This works as expected, nice work. I understand everything is local data, but am curious if it's feasible to keep favorites even after logging out. Most users probably expect that to happen, not knowing the technical limitation.

I tried looking into Core to see if there is a built-in feature for this. The closest I found is the "Favorite" feature:

This also affects how products are shown on the site itself, though, and if I understand correctly, this feature we're building is just for product management. In the future if we revisit this feature, I wonder if we can take into account this "Featured" functionality (e.g: by adding "Featured" option in the "Sort by" selector in the app).

Thanks for the review, Hafiz! Marking it as draft to address feedback about using userdefaults in #12287.

Thanks for the input, @hafizrahman!

Yes, I took a look at this before starting work and learned that this feature in core is used to feature the product to the users (customers).

Our "Favorite product" feature's goal is to allow merchants to favorite products for easy management.

They are different features and our feature will be mobile only (with no backend support from core) at least for now.

👋 again @hafizrahman,

I have revisited this PR and pushed changes to,

• Stop using user defaults to store favorite product information.
• Use GeneralStoreSettings and AppSettingsStore to store the favorite products information.
• Add unit tests.

Please take another look at the PR when you can. Thank you!
