By having an index for the pages, it'd allow clients to build autocomplete's and show an index of pages making only one request (think `tldr list`). Subsequent caching of this file would prevent further requests. Included is a makefile to easily rebuild the index. It could be tailored in case the pages structure changed. In a particular case, the web client would benefit greatly from an index. It'd know exactly what folder a command is in and thus the number of requests would drop from 4 to 1.
