Background

See #11

Problem

It's unclear what tooling to use for this.

Solution

We'll need to compare our requirements for available options.

This means collecting:

• Our list of requirements
• Our available options

We'll start there, and wittle it down as we go.

Progress update

This is work-in-progress in my personal workbench.

I've been working on a way to convert a folder of markdown files into a single unified markdown file partitioned by markdown headers.

I had spent a good amount of time implementing a MarkdownFolderFile that gave me a stream which could read any IFolder into an IFile's Stream, but I've also been working on a generalized DFS/BFS extension as part of this.

I will likely need to put aside the generalized DFS/BFS storage extension as part of this. As noted in #owlcore - Recursion via Queue (thread):

Due to the complexity here, I've decided to put this on hold and create another DFS IFolder implementation until I can put more time to studying this. Chaining IAsyncEnumerator iterators dynamically in two dimensions is... an interesting challenge, but is taking up too much time and clear enough that I can leave it in the background without losing it. I'd like to keep making progress on #community-infra above all else.

I can simplify my approach and likely speed it up. Even if I get the MarkdownFolderFile working, I'll need to figure out how to make it produce grid layouts when converted to html.
