Accessible as open data #137

Currently, the website has an excellent search, but does not offer a data download of the results or individual entries. A bulk download in a portable format like CSV and Data Package would be ideal. This could also be a good step towards open publications, as well as encouraging diverse ways to access and update the catalog.

I can see this is already possible through the API, so this issue proposes to add some information and a link to the web interface. At least a small sample of the data directly in the repository could also help developers get started.

As one of the old 🧑‍🌾 'gardeners', I'd be happy to help get more visibility and invite contributions to this 🤩 awesome project.

Hey @loleg, it would be a please to review and onboard you as a contributor of the project.

Feel free to open a PR.

I don't know if you're familiar with the backend tech of this project. It would be a please to create the necessary endpoint for you, once a Frontend PR (button "download dataset" once a search has been triggered") has been proposed.
