Work is impermanent / doesn't save #291

First: thank you for creating this beautiful & powerful visualization tool! However, it seems that whenever I move away from my work (e.g. click on the "Feature Demos" or "Neat Examples" tabs) my plot is lost and I can't recover it. What is the correct workflow for building and saving my own plots? In my opinion, a Desmos-style "saved graphs" interface would be ideal.

I agree—a "saved graphs" tab would be great. This would require a user login system, which math3d doesn't have right now. (And would be a significant task that I don't have time for at the moment.)

In the meantime, you can click the "Share" button in upper-right-hand corner to get a shareable link.

The link is permanent but you do you have manage storing the link yourself =/

hey, would it be possible to share the database of graphs? I'm sure it's huge, but there must be some gold in there. I don't reckon you need a user function to do something like that.

This would require a user login system, ...

Would it be possible to automatically save graph URLs to localStorage?

Then you could have a simple UI for managing links, without the need for accounts.
