For storing the .qgs file in a geopackage you can simply do "Project"
--> "Save As" --> "Geopackage".
I think you could even have multiple .qgs project files in a single
Geopackage. Andreas

Dear community,

I want to export a QGIS project. In this project there are a few layers (the 
path for each layer is set according to where the data is saved on my 
computer). I can open the project on my computer and all the layers are 
available.
But when I send the project (and all the data for the layers - everything is in 
one repository) to a colleague, he can not view the layers (because the paths 
are still set according to my computer). One can fix this in a few minutes by 
setting up the correct paths, but this is very annoying. And once the paths are 
set correctly, all the symbology from the layer properties is lost (or reset to 
some standard).

Is there a way to save a QGIS project and all the related data as one file (so 
that another person, who opens this file on its own computer, does not have to 
set up all the paths and edit the symbology)?

Try the QConsolidate plugin from Alex Bruy:
https://github.com/alexbruy/qconsolidate
available from his plugin repo (or github)
https://plugins.bruy.me/qconsolidate.html

It is also possible to export your data to an geopackage yourself, as you can 
also save symbology for layers into a geopackage, and..., wel you would need to 
sent 2 files then: the gpkg with you data+symbology and your QGIS project file
(was there a plugin to write your projectfile into a gpkg?)
