Check where your project is saved
New projects and built-in examples initially use browser storage in every browser. When the location reads In this browser only, use Save project as… to keep a copy outside the browser or move it to another computer.
Return to your work¶
Use Recent projects or Continue where you left off after reloading or reopening the app.
Keep a copy before clearing browser data
Clearing the browser's site data removes browser-held projects. Private browsing may remove them when the session ends. Download the projects you want to keep first.
