Source and runtime

Know which changes are saved to a frame and which belong to a running application.

Design Frames have editable source

Open Edit Code for a selection to inspect its snippet, or switch to Full Code to inspect the frame. Supported visual edits update the frame source. The rendered DOM is a runtime surface, not the saved document.

Web Frames have a separate source workflow

A Web Frame displays your running application. Do not assume a temporary visual edit has changed your repository. Review and apply the intended source changes through the connected workflow or your coding agent.

Keep dynamic code intact

Expressions, imported components and stateful content are not always editable as plain text. Use the source or an agent when the visual control cannot safely represent that change. Review the result and use undo if needed.
