Description
Issues:
- Clicking on the code preview doesn't go to the code editor. You have to click "Edit", wait for the UI to load and then select the "Code" dropdown.

- After you copy and paste something within the editor (`ctrl + c`, `ctrl + v`) the undo functionality stops working (`ctrl + z`)
