Login with angular 4

Question

I am learning angular4, and would like to know a way to login with the same. I can already get the backend data, but how do I set up the session? (I came from php, there was only use).

I saw something about storing a token in localstorage, but that would be there forever, no?

You can use as a basis this tutorial to create login with Angular

About localStorage stores data without an expiration date. Data will not be deleted when the browser is closed and will be available next day, week or year.
