That depends on those developers, of course, and if their users would ask for such features, which will only add extra value to their product, like Simbrief or Navigraph integration. It's surely not depending on us, since GSX already expose lots of variables developers can use to integrate, and the MSFS version has even more of them.
In addition to that, the way the GSX menu works in MSFS, it's even easier to integrate it from an external product, because we had to replace a Simconnect call that is still missing from FSX ( menu creation ) and Asobo confirmed they have no plans to add it back, so we had to emulate that with a combination of HTML/JS/WASM, which was a bit annoying, but the side effect is that now it's easier for other products to know what GSX menu is being displayed, and possibly control it as well.
Scaild:
That's great! Thank you for your hard work ^_^

This intergration is good to know about and something I wish more aircraft developers would utilise. The FSLabs Airbus series did a good job of integration back in P3D, but it would be so much better if the aircraft and GSX could interact with all ground services.
Still, any chance of a new preview? :)

As I'm slowly migrating to MSFS, GSX is what I'm looking forward to the most. Thanks for your continuous effort in advancing the flight simulator experience.

Recording a video and editing it, takes some time. Time we'd rather spend on completing GSX.
