A teacher cannot easily preview, copy, and transfer custom Canvas LMS code (HTML/CSS/JS) from one district to another, losing instructional content and design work.
Existing solutions like GitHub lack a built-in preview for Canvas LMS customizations, making it hard to assess code before copying or reusing it.
