I have just come across this project and I absolutely adore it, many thanks to everyone involved!

I use it a lot for personal use (e.g. routes with errands, shops, sightseeing, etc.) and basically copy paste the route to my whatsapp so I can access it on the phone. It would be more convenient to export the route to Google Maps, where I understand it can then be saved and accessed on the phone.

I am not sure if the core devs have considered some way of exporting routes?

Needless to say I would be very happy to implement this feature myself or indeed any other export capability & send a PR, but I want to know what the core devs think.

This has never been brought up in this repo (the frontend is really just a demo) but I can see how it may be useful. Probably the easiest way to do it would be to provide a simple route export to GPX. This looks like a common format for this use-case and it could be ingested by a variety of apps (not just gmaps).

That seems very reasonable. I will look into it if I have time on the weekend.
