In 2013, this Slicer module called "Data Store" was created. It allowed to easily
upload, download and browse MRB files stored in a remote database that was
available at https://slicer.kitware.com/midas3/folder/1555. Source code of the module
was stored in the Slicer/Slicer-DataStore GitHub project.
In March 2020, the Slicer community decided (see issue Slicer/Slicer#4602) to retire the DataStore module and instead store the corresponding data files as GitHub release assets into the Slicer/SlicerDataStore GitHub project.
In September 2021, the Slicer legacy extensions catalog
has been updated (see issue Slicer/Slicer#5845) to include the
/midas3/slicerdatastore and /midas3/slicerdatastore/user/login endpoints displaying
instructions referencing the GitHub release assets. Additionally, the "Data Store" module
was improved to set the legacy website theme based on the select Slicer style (Dark Slicer
vs Light Slicer).
