FAQ

›Do I need a <link> or <style> tag?

No. The CSS tab is applied to the HTML automatically. Download gives you one HTML file with the CSS inside a <style> element.

›Is my code sent to a server?

No. Your code runs in your browser, inside a sandboxed frame, and is saved only in this browser's local storage. Share links keep the code in the part of the URL after #, which browsers don't send to servers.

›Why doesn't localStorage or document.cookie work in the result?

The result runs in a sandbox with its own origin, so it can't touch this site's storage. That keeps shared links safe to open; use variables instead while you experiment.
