Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about GU-APE.

How does cookie-based storage work?

GU-APE stores your profile and designs in browser cookies using a compressed, JSON-serialized format. Each design is saved to its own cookie (GU-APE_Design_v1), and your profile is stored separately (GU-APE_UserSession). Every change auto-saves as you work.

What are the cookie storage limits?

Modern browsers limit cookies to 4KB per cookie and around 150 cookies per domain. GU-APE uses compression to maximize space, but very large architectures may hit limits. We recommend exporting to JSON for backup—there's no size limit on exported files.

Which browsers are supported?

GU-APE works best in Chrome 90+, Firefox 88+, Safari 14+, and Edge 90+. We recommend Chrome or Firefox for the best experience. Mobile browsers have limited functionality due to screen size.

Is my data private?

Yes. All data stays in your browser—nothing is sent to our servers. Your designs are stored only in your local cookies. When you export to JSON, you control where that file goes. We cannot access your designs.

How many designs can I create?

There's no limit on the number of designs. Each design gets its own cookie, so the practical limit depends on your browser's storage capacity. For large numbers of designs, consider periodic exports to JSON.

Is GU-APE compatible with all n8n nodes?

GU-APE supports the standard n8n node library including Triggers, Actions, Logic, and Data Transformation nodes. Some community or custom nodes may not be available. We're continuously adding support for more nodes.

Can I work offline?

Yes. Once the page loads, GU-APE works entirely offline. All functionality is client-side. However, if you need to deploy directly to n8n, you'll need an internet connection for that step.

How do I sync designs across devices?

GU-APE doesn't have built-in sync across devices. To move designs, use Export to JSON on one device and Import on another. For teams, share JSON files through your existing version control or file sharing system.

What's the maximum complexity for a design?

There's no hard limit, but very complex designs (1000+ nodes) may experience performance degradation. Use Macro Nodes to encapsulate subsystems and keep your top-level canvas manageable.

How do I backup my designs?

Export individual designs as JSON using the Export button. We recommend doing this regularly, especially before major changes. JSON exports are standard n8n format and can be imported into any n8n instance.

Can I use GU-APE commercially?

Yes. Designs created with GU-APE are yours. Export to n8n and deploy to your infrastructure as needed. There are no restrictions on commercial use.
