How do you save a players lot?

So my question is how do you save a player's lot. If that is confusing, what I mean is like in that Skyblock game where they save how your island looks. I want to figure out how to do that because I want to make a farm game but I feel like people wouldn't play it if they lost all their progress when they leave the game. I slightly understand how data stores work to save cash but if someone could lead me in a direction or tell me what to use to do this it would be very nice. Thank!

They probably created some type of block object that stores the properties of every block on the island, e.g.

local block = {
	Name = "Grass",
	Color = Color3.new(0, 1, 0),
	Position = Vector3.new(214, 50, 2)
}

and store these in a DataStore.
