    I was intrigued by https://tigerfs.io/ and had Copilot-CLI whip up a Linux file system for DocumentDB and by definition for any MongoDB API compatible DB since it just takes a connection string.

    It feels like a toy though it's fun to explore a DB with filesystem commands like ls, cat, and such -- I added some special .-directories and mapped them to aggregation pipelines like `ls /mnt/db/sampledb/users/.match/city/Seattle/` to make things faster -- but again it's a bit unnatural.

    All in all a solution in search of a problem and not bad for 2h work but curious what you think.
