This demo showcase how to run Git in browser but write to a real user file system folder. It is possible through File System Access API. The API allows to request a folder from user and then use it as a real file system in browser.

In this demo we use memfs to create a Node fs-like file system in browser out of the folder provided by File System Access API. We then use isomorphic-git to run Git commands on that file system.

In the demo itself we initiate a Git repo, then we create a README.md file, we stage it, and finally we commit it.
