+/**
+ * Creates a simple in-memory storage. This means that if you need to persist data between
+ * page or server reloads, this will not help.
+ *
+ * This is the storage used by default.
+ *
+ * If you need to modify it's data, you can do by the `data` property.
+ *
+ * @example
+ *
+ * ```js
+ * const memoryStorage = buildMemoryStorage();
+ *
+ * setupCache(axios, { storage: memoryStorage });
+ *
+ * // Simple example to force delete the request cache
+ *
+ * const { id } = axios.get('url');
+ *
+ * delete memoryStorage.data[id];
+ * ```
