Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository and the linked Open Styles Project to understand the intended tooling and scope. No file, test, entry point, or concrete completion condition is named, so done cannot be determined from this issue alone.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This is going to be a big project.

It must have a broad base of participants, or it will be too small or narrow to fulfill the mission of providing a true alternative to this particularly corporate-dominated space.

I don't even want to be in charge of this endeavor, if someone else would like to head it up. I will make sure the tooling is worthy of the content via the sibling Open Styles Project. I will stay involved, but I can think of many people who would be better at leading this one than I would.

PLEASE do not hesitate to leave a message below or come talk in Write the Docs Slack (#style-guides) where I'm about to go post.
