Students often refresh the page and lose all their work
See original GitHub issueThis is definitely user error in a lot of ways, but I think it would be great to make saving more a part of the workflow. My proposal is that ctrl + s
would “save” which, judging by popcode’s current functionality, would probably just be exporting a gist somewhere that each subsequent save would overwrite.
Seems like an approachable way to start solving this problem.

I still think this is an important issue, but I’m going to close this as we’ve got a couple of ideas to address it in #779 and #609.
