Add the ability to clone a project

[JackConradGray]

This would be useful for demonstrating projects under development by allowing some demos to happen in a fresh state and others to happen in more developed state. This way a demo can be done without all the intermediate steps.

It would also be useful for doing parallel experiments in moving forward on implementation.

In a sense it would be like having multiple project states available like having acess to different commits in branching repository.

I did some research on this and it appears that I can save state and reload state by providing a UI to name, save, and open saved states using the name. This would create a mock file system.

A file system is useful in many ways. Is that sort of extension to the platform likely to be developed soon or should I see if I can mock one up using things that are already availible?

Hi @JackConradGray , cloning projects is currently on our roadmap but sits behind some important updates we're working on. Hopefully we can bring that soon!

I have a mechanism for saving files which works well except for overloading the server traffic.  We are starting to autosave locally and save and load via the server on hard saves and loads to avoid traffic stops.  I can share that code if you want you take a look.There will be a need for multiple simultaneous users at some point but no need yet.Jack ***@***.*** Aug 28, 2026, at 3:13 PM, Alberto Bujalance ***@***.***> wrote:ABujalance left a comment (ThatOpen/platform_services#38) Hi @JackConradGray , cloning projects is currently on our roadmap but sits behind some important updates we're working on.
