In the MakeCode Editor  your code is saved automatically in the browser, but you can:

• Download your .hex file,using the download button in the bottom left of the screen, so you can flash it to the micro:bit.
  
• Rename your project in your projects folder. Clicking on the disk icon to the right of the text area will also download the .hex file with the new name.
  
  
• Share your code publicly in a message, tweet, email or embed it in a blog post by clicking on the share link and copying the URL that you are given
  

You could also use a shared document (eg Dropbox Paper or Google Docs) and paste the URLs into it inn order to keep a list of your projects.
