Why don't my edits in Workspaces update the preview I can see in the browser?

Near the end of the lesson, the instructors inform us to change the HEX code to the word BLUE and refresh the example webpage. I follow the instructions but the color fails to change on the example website. Am I missing something?

Be sure to save you changes in the editor, and then refresh the browser page.

Ah my apologies, it works fine. The video doesn't mention, or show Saving but I assume it's just common knowledge, and I am just dumb.

It's actually a common issue, based on prior questions. The saving could be better emphasized in the videos.

And Happy holidays!   :christmas_tree:
