Feature Request: Autosave drafts in the editor

[Palakgokhru]

Hi! I’d like to suggest a feature that could improve the writing experience in PublicLab.Editor.

Problem

Currently, if the browser refreshes, crashes, or the internet connection drops, users may lose unsaved content while writing. This can be frustrating, especially for longer posts.

Suggested Feature

Add an autosave functionality that automatically saves drafts at regular intervals (for example, every few seconds or after changes).

Why This Helps

• Prevents accidental data loss
• Improves user experience for long-form writing
• Reduces reliance on manual saving

This would be especially helpful for new users and contributors who may not be familiar with the editor workflow yet.

Thanks for considering this suggestion!
