Description

It would be neat if we have a simple example app, that opens an openPMD series and stores it again - under a user-give, potentially different, file format / backend.

Ideally serial & parallel.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look at existing examples in the openPMD api repository, learn how to read and write openPMD series using the API, and create a simple converter that supports both serial and parallel execution.
