[e-mail]
//besides ur account can't be deleted or lost on its own

Answer 2

Jakob Marley, he want to backup his profile, because if he deleted one code, he can restore it again.

Answer 3

I save some of my code offline, it's rather simple, just copy-paste from Code Playground → a local code editor and hit Save button, your code is backed up, if codes were your primary concern of course, as for posts I guess there a too many to backup and I see little reason to do anyway. Badges and others, no idea, I'm not much achiever I guess : )

Answer 4

That's why you have an account that you log into........it's already being saved to your account in their database.

Answer 5

@JFS Animion

I see. Since he included all other features, and wasn't specific to why he wanted to backup all the things he listed, I didn't recognize it as such, but merely as him implying that he doesn't want to lose his account; assuming maybe he thought he would lose everything if he removed the app from his phone.

You're asked a total of 3 times about if you're sure you want to delete your code prior to it being deleted, so it's not like one loses their code without putting full intention into deleting it. He can suggest it to SoloLearn, but they already put in measures to ensure people don't accidentally delete their code. Double up ALL data on their servers doesn't make sense, and allowing people to store data locally makes even less sense because local data is easily manipulated.

Either way, considering all of the things he listed in his post, it doesn't sound like he was simply focused on his code, because he also lists off things such as badges, skills, etc... Considering the majority of the things he listed is related to your account, rather than your code, he is talking about your profile in general; which again is all backed up already by SoloLearn on their servers. So either he is asking for something that already exists or he is asking for something that doesn't even make sense in any context.

However, I do agree with you, the ability to EXPORT your codes would potentially be a neat feature for many, regardless of what the original poster here is implying with their suggestion. Since they didn't follow up with us, I suppose we'll never know. Then again, backing them up doesn't much make sense either overall..... maybe a feature that allows you to LOCK your codes so that you can't delete them unless you unlock them first? That seems like a more plausible idea.
