[Social Farms & Gardens-Spring-24] Reload map on refresh #316

Closed lin-d-hop closed 6 months ago

lin-d-hop commented 7 months ago

PLease track time for this bug under 'Social Farms & Gardens-Spring-24' on clockify

Description

When you refresh on LX the UI reloads to a new and unsaved map. As we develop more features around the map as document tools users will increasingly be using saved maps and thus a refresh in this way is annoying. It would be great to refresh and reload the map that the user is currently editing.

From Rohit on Element: I think this would be quite easy to do (about 1-2 hours work), by saving the current map ID in the browser's sessionStorage, which persists over site reloads but then gets wiped when the tab is closed

Acceptance Criteria

Ready for review. Thanks @rogup, the only difficulty I encountered was forgetting the sessionStorage variable is saved as a string, when comparing it to mapId 😅.
