Beginner question on devnet.

I used **sui client faucet** to get some sui tokens in my devnet address. A few days later (maybe 2 weeks passed). Now when I run **“sui client gas”** it shows empty - should I expect to run “sui client faucet” again to get some sui balance. I am trying to build my first app.

Yes, devnet is wiped clean weekly and you will have to get gas upon reset and replublish any contracts you may have been working with.
