* Demonstrating how to manipulate sessions in Drupal 8.
*
* You can read the API documentation here:
* https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/core%21core.api.php/group/session/
*
* Drupal's session management is inherited from Symfony. We use the
* Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Session\SessionInterface object which we can
* get from the Request object.
*
* This object allows us to get and set values from the user session.
*
* We can use the session to store information per visitor.
*
* In this example, we will have the user fill out a form with some personal
* information, and then be able to display that information on another page.
*
* To learn more, one could examine the Stream Wrapper Example. It uses the
* session API to implement a session: file scheme.
*
* @see stream_wrapper_example
