fs-readdir-recursive provides a simple, efficient way to recursively read the contents of a directory using Node.js's fs module. Unlike other similar packages, it offers a minimal API, focusing solely on retrieving an array of all files within a directory and its subdirectories. It's a lightweight solution, ideal for scenarios where you need a complete file list without additional features like filtering or complex options. Its straightforward approach makes it easy to integrate into existing projects where a recursive directory listing is needed.
