Hi Martin,

The first thing to check is that you've saved your files in workspace. You can do this through File > Save or with the shortcut CTRL+S. If there's a red dot next to the file name at the top of the code editor that indicates changes have been made that have not been saved.

If you've confirmed the files are saved and refreshing your preview still does not reflect changes then it would be helpful to share your code here, just in case there's an error somewhere.
