[QGIS-Developer] Guidance in developing a comprehensive Spatial Data Modelling plugin

[Nick Bearman]

Hi Sandeepan,

Thanks for reaching out :-)

For the need for your plugin, I will leave that to others on the list - 
this is not my area.

In terms of making a plugin - I would recommend the "QGIS Plugin 
Development Is Not Scary: Lessons Learned from Literature Mapper" 
session from the recent FOSS4G Conference. Details at 
https://callforpapers.2021.foss4g.org/foss4g2021/talk/ZM7KYR/ and 
recording at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCfQoX5n4Eg.

Michele and Alex talk about their experiences of creating a QGIS Plugin 
- and the bottom line is go for it!

I am about to undertake a similar process to create a QGIS Plugin so it 
will be an interesting experience!

Good luck!

Best wishes,
Nick.

My working pattern is probably not the same as your working pattern, therefore
you may get emails from me outside of normal working hours. Please do not feel any
pressure to respond outside of your own working pattern.
