You can save your project into a GitHub repository from MakeCode and import it later on.

I’m using the Arduino nano board but can’t find pxt-common-packages.
Let me explain you once what I’m trying to do. I have a custom board based on Arduino nano and trying to have it programme it and simulate it with makecode. For that I need to add my board, and add new blocks. I couldn’t find the resources to use pre-configured files for the same in pxt maker. Kindly help me with the same.
