jquery - Incrementing a counter when a button is clicked (JavaScript, HTML)

Question

I want to display a button for an HTML document, and each time this button is clicked it increments. After incrementation I want that number(which is the counter to be saved) for when the file is accessed again the counter shows for the users. What I read is that there is a function called addBtn, which on click increments how is it possible to save the incremented value

    addBtn.on("click", function() {
    counter.html(++value);
    return;          
});

That would be something like this. Just replace the "your_textfield" with your selector.

  var counter = 1;
  function increase(){
      var textBox = document.getElementById("your_textfield");
      textBox.value = counter;
      counter ++;
  }
