Worth pointing out as well, Depot is the backbone for Cantata modding! New Devlog coming soon that talks more about Depot -> Cantata, but for now I wanted to put up this basic tutorial!

Hey Cantata,

I've been using Depot over the weekend for my game development project.
It was super easy to create a little database using Depot.
I am really happy with the single select, multi select and properties - that was something I was struggling with in other visual editors like Google Sheets.

I've managed to get the DPO file into my game engine (Game Maker Studio) and all is smooth sailing from there on.

The thing I was wondering about the most is whether there is some kind of JSON export function in Depot?
The DPO file contains a lot of data that is not relevant for me.
In the end I would just need a JSON of my database - in my case, only the lines within a given sheet.

I understand that this would be a one-way trip from Depot as the exported JSON would not be backwards compatible.
Do you know a solution for this?

Anyway, just wanted to throw this out there.
Thank you very much for making this a free to use extension.
It will greatly improve the speed/scaleability of my project.

Thank!
