Codesandbox-client: Make preferences permanent

[rhernandog]

Hello Ives,

First of all, thanks for the great work, I love how easy is to create React live samples with this app.

More than an issue is an enhancement request actually. Right now if I create a new sandbox and then go back to it later that day, I have to set up all the preferences again, such as autocomplete, line height, prettier settings, etc. It would be nice to either saver those for each sandbox or create a general preferences for the account that could be fetched whenever the user creates/loads a sandbox.

Although I'm in no hurry about it, I can live with setting everything by hand for now.

Best,
Rodrigo.

Hey @rhernandog! You encountered a bug haha, the preferences weren't properly saved to localStorage. I fixed the bug and now the settings should persist again.

Thanks for opening the issue, I hadn't even noticed this bug yet!

Hi @CompuIves,

Sorry to re-open this, but the issue is happening again. Every time I open a sandbox I have to set my preferences again. Mostly what I do is change the line height and font family.

Again, this is not too urgent, I can live changing this when I work on my sandboxes, so whenever you have the time to solve it.

Cheers,
Rodrigo.

@CompuIves, is there any way to save this to the cloud and not LocalStorage? It'd be nice to have it synced between all machines.

Yep, we need this @ryanpcmcquen. Could you open an issue for it?
