This issue needs help from moderators and users to reproduce and confirm its validity and fix.
Description
On practice challenge pages, the code is automatically saved to the browser storage when the user clicks the test button. This isn't the case with the certification project pages, the code is not saved unless the user clicks the "Save your Code" button.
We have received multiple reports of users losing their code changes after they closed the tab or navigated away from the page, without pressing the save button.
I think one way to prevent this is to update the instruction text and mention that the user needs to manually save their progress.
Though I'm not sure where the text should be added. Perhaps at the end of the instruction and as a note?
