Build DIRECTORY.md with JavaScript, not Python #160

Closed
@cclauss

Description

@cclauss

We present all of of our algorithms in an organized list, DIRECTORY.md so visitors can rapidly find topics of interest. Currently DIRECTORY.md is being autogenerated by one of our GitHub Actions which uses Python code to create the directory text.

Why should the JavaScript repo rely on Python code?!? Especially given that GitHub Actions fully support the creation of JavaScript-based Actions. Can we use JavaScript to autogenerate DIRECTORY.md and lose the Python code in the process?

I have added the workflow as a js file in PR #163 .
The yml file needs to be updated so that the action can be run, I tried to look up github actions on javascript documentation and try to figure it out but didn't understand how to run the standalone js file. Some help will be appreciated.
