Feature request: remember the state of application #658

Open usr110 opened 6 years ago

usr110 commented 6 years ago

Hi, What do you @npct/admin think about a feature which remembers the state of the application? Let me explain: imagine a user is using our app for wales and has selected following:

(or any other combination of inputs)

wouldn't it be useful to save the state of the application which remembers all of these (including the region)? This would increase overall useability and more importantly sharing of specifics inputs with other people. The idea is the URL of the app will keep track of user inputs, so the downside is it will make the URL look rather messy.

I may have found a rather basic idea how to achieve this, but before I invest more time to it, would like to hear your views, especially yours @nikolai-b

Great idea - this will definitely help users share the results of the PCT with others.
