Golden Data
Golden Data is a lightweight data collection addon built for World of Warcraft players, route creators, researchers, and community projects.
The addon focuses on one thing: collecting useful information and exporting it in a clean format that can be analyzed outside the game.
Whether you're tracking gathering routes, studying resource distribution, building farming guides, creating community databases, or developing your own tools, Golden Data provides a simple way to record and export information while you play.

Export Options

Philosophy
Golden Data is intentionally designed as a focused utility rather than an all-in-one solution. The addon collects information, stores it, and allows you to export it. What you do with that data is entirely up to you.
Use it to improve your routes, build tools, contribute to community projects, or simply learn more about your gameplay.
Collect. Analyze. Improve.
