Description

IMO, the part about the FS is not quite right and there are missing parts.

  • The title of subsection "Manipulating Files" should be something like "working with file system" because the content is just not about file it's also about folder.
  • Adding a intorudction of fs/fs/promises + what mean file system ... like introduction of test runner
  • Include glob paterns
  • more examples with cjs/esm

Remaining question:

  • Should we put ESM example as first ?
  • Should we put fs/promises as first.
  • How to handle difference between fs and fs/promises

Research direction

Start with the “Manipulating Files” subsection and review its existing coverage of fs and fs/promises. Clarify the section title, explain the file system and glob patterns, and add CJS/ESM examples; done means the ordering and treatment of fs versus fs/promises are resolved in the updated guide.
