A QGIS plugin aimed at researchers who already work in QGIS and want to publish a slice of their project as an open, shareable bundle.

The plugin captures the current view — extents, layers and selected datasets — and writes them out as a gcx.json manifest plus datasets/*.geojson, then optionally pushes the result to a GitHub repository via the system git. The matching front-end (see Geocontext Front-End) renders these bundles back to a browser.
