Thanks for your feedback.
For 3, I really think we as developers don't spend as much time reading source code of others as we should be. So, this solves 2 problems:
1. Give repo creators ability to define the order in which people should read source code using a simple manifest which just lists the source files in an order. We can also default to an order based on the framework/language. E.g. Rails apps have a structure vs Elixir apps which have their own structure.
2. Build an epub/mobi/pdf which can be sent to Kindle or to any other device where the user can browse through the code at their own pace.
