Tutorial With Sample Inputs

Tips

• Use Dark mode button in the top-right navigation to switch themes.
• Site dark mode changes the app UI only; preview/export styling follows header and item themes with a light-default baseline.
• Role and team size appear only when Project type is Group Project.
• Contribution and narrative text areas are optional, so quick summaries are allowed.
• Evidence images are stored locally and restored automatically in the same browser profile.
• Session auto-recovery restores your previous state after accidental refresh.
• Use the top-right History button to browse and restore periodic autosave snapshots.

Troubleshooting

• If the 3-dot menu seems unresponsive, click directly on ... first, then choose Edit or Delete.
• If ZIP import fails, ensure the file came from this tool's Export Bundle (ZIP).
• If PDF text looks odd, refresh preview once and export again; for best results use Chrome or Edge Save as PDF.
