History and branches ​

Projects save as you work. The History panel lets you go back to an earlier version, or branch off to try a different pinout without losing the one you have.

Autosave ​

Every change is saved in this browser automatically. The status reads “Saving changes…” and then “All changes saved”. If a save fails, you see “The last change could not be saved.” and can retry.

Versions ​

Open the sidebar to see History. Each entry says only what the record supports:

  • Initial version, when the project was created.
  • Automatic version, saved as you edit.
  • Restored version, created when you restore an earlier one.

History doesn’t describe what changed between two versions, and comparing two versions isn’t built yet.

Restore an earlier version ​

Select a version and choose to replace the working copy with it. Restoring adds a new version on top; nothing in between is deleted, so you can restore your way back.

Branches ​

Select a version and start a new branch there, then give the branch a name. Use the branch filter at the top of History to show one branch or all of them.

Only one browser tab can edit a branch at a time. Another tab opens it read-only and says so.

Where it’s stored ​

History lives in this browser’s storage on this device, and nowhere else. Clearing the site’s data removes it. To keep a project safe or move it to another machine, export it as JSON.
