Note to say where local files for notebooks are saved #405

It would be nice to say somewhere where local files for notebook are saved. I cannot find the answer to the question. Thank you in advance!

Sure, that can be added to the help notebook. If you would like, you can go to https://next.getmicropad.com, edit the notebook and make a pull request.

To answer the question, notebooks are saved in browser storage, with the technology depending on your browser. In most cases it'll be IndexedDB.

With that being said, it's good practice to save your notebooks to disk every now and then, just like you would a word document, etc. Ctrl+S (or Cmd+S on a mac) will save a notebook to a file, and Ctrl+O (or Cmd+O) will open one. You can also save all your notebooks as one bundle for back-up purposes by going Notebooks -> Export All or Ctrl+Shift+S for short.
