I can confirm this to be true. write-draft object in localstorage is empty.

@Vishnu-dholu But its still not displaying on screen after refresh

@Vishnu-dholu But its still not displaying on screen after refresh

because you are instantly reloading the page after updating the content.
The autoSaveHandler is updating or autosaving the data in interval of 15 sec.

1. The localStorage is being set with an empty object during auto-save, hence, the auto-save breaks.
2. We need to reduce the interval to 5 seconds.

@aadeshkulkarni I would like to work on this issue
I will reduce the interval for autoSave to 5 sec and also make sure that the drafts are being saved to local storage by debugging and solving the issue
