 In the past, I had to export Geogbra files to html5 to embed them, but the process was pretty clunky and time consuming. I searched the Dokuwiki plugins but all the ones listed are too old and don't work anymore.  Finally, I created my own using some general instructions for [[https://wiki.geogebra.org/en/Reference:GeoGebra_Apps_Embedding |embedding Geogebra files]].  This is my first plugin and a bit of a cheat: I basically took the existing [[https://www.dokuwiki.org/plugin:color |Color plugin]] which is pretty simple, studied it to learn a bit of the syntax and modified it until it did what I needed.  However, there's still a lot of code that I don't really understand and a few features that are missing. In the past, I had to export Geogbra files to html5 to embed them, but the process was pretty clunky and time consuming.
