Mapbox API plugin for wordpress

Non-technical Aim

Enabling majority of the world's websites to collect map-related data from their users and show the collected data in real time.

A plugin for self-hosted websites running the popular open source wordpress.org CMS,
Which extends the popular and open source Contact Form 7 plugin..
To include a MAP field in addition to other fields that the user can click to define geographical inputs..
And when this form is submitted, the site adds the data collected to a dataset in a Mapbox account, via the Mapbox SDK API.

Addition :

Using a shortcode or so, the plugin can also fetch data from a Mapbox dataset and render it on a web map, anywhere on the site.
- This could also be taken up in a second plugin or so.. it's an easier target that can be achieved in other ways too so not that vital.
