Work with examples

How example projects work in Truzme — open one to explore, and keep it if you want to.

Look for the icon on the right side of the screen — that opens the Examples panel. Pick one and it loads straight into the canvas, fully editable.

It doesn't save automatically, though. The file indicator next to the logo shows it as an example until you decide what to do with it:

  • Fork to file… — saves it as a real .truzme file, same as any other project. The example itself is untouched.
  • Fork to local — replaces what's currently saved in this browser with the example.
  • Close example (open local model) — goes back to your local model, what's already saved in this browser. The example is simply discarded.

A page refresh takes you back to your local model — the example isn't saved anywhere, so it's simply gone, the same as closing it on purpose.

Want to share an example? Pick Copy link from the file indicator's menu. It copies a link that opens that exact example, so you can send it to a classmate or your students.

See the Files guide for how Local and File saving work.
