It's basically "put a bunch of data in a SQLite database, run a Java program, it generates the XML for GearCity, put the XML in the right folders".
Amusingly, I went down this route with AeroMogul, except using CSV and a spreadsheet.
I probably should have went that way for GC's mod tools, but at the time I was heavily considering doing AeroMogul in QT and I wanted to learn that sdk in and out in case I needed to get a job. Original data was done by hand. Which I find just as easy. But you need a big monitor and a syncing multi-panel text editor.
