Description

One idea that's garnered a bit of attention in #181 is that we want to prepend a feature to the start of the file, similar to how append adds a new line to the end of the file

Research direction
Investigate the existing append action implementation in plop's source code, likely in the `src/actions` directory. Review the discussion in related issue #181 to understand requirements for prepending content to the start of a file. Consider how to modify the file structure to insert content at the beginning rather than appending.
