When the user opens the Sidebar, you can set a variable (eg: isSideBarOpen) in your local storage to "true".

window.localStorage.setItem(isSideBarOpen","true")

if the user closes it you set it to "false"

window.localStorage.setItem(isSideBarOpen","false")

every time the user loads your app, you will check

   if(window.localStorage.getItem("isSideBarOpen") === "true") {
      // your logic to open/close SideBar
   }

I think it is better to store all data related to page state.

You can store it in localStorage or event in your DB.

Considering the following situation:

1- Store all data in DB in every change => [you might have lots of updateState request for each user]

2- Store all data in localStorage => Save them in DB periodically by a timer or save data when a specific action happen. [As an example when user logout, store data in DB]

To do this you can write a Javascript or Jquery

function updateSate(args= {}) { 
    let sate = {
       isSideBarOpen: documents.getElementById or get it from args,
       ...otherdata
    }
    //store it in localStorage using 
    localStorage.setItem('state', JSON.stringify(state));
}

//call storeState to save localStorage in DB
function storeState() {
    send request to save it
}
//Read the page state from localStorage when page is loaded
