In plain words

Garlic.js is a JavaScript library that automatically saves form data to prevent users from losing their work. It persists form input across browser sessions, restoring data if a page is accidentally closed or refreshed. The tool is designed for developers building web applications where form data loss would frustrate users. It launched in 2012 and works by storing form values locally, eliminating the need for users to re-enter information.
