Description

  • We should reorganize the .md files in the repo. Currently, a lot of them are at the top-level.
  • We should rename the ./part-N.md intro chapters to not have N so that we can move them around.

This might break some links, so maybe it's not worth it?

@rust-lang/wg-rustc-dev-guide What do you think?

Research direction

Start by inventorying the top-level .md files and references to the ./part-N.md intro chapters. Determine whether a stable reorganization can be agreed on without breaking links; done means the layout is defined, files are moved or renamed accordingly, and affected links remain valid.
