Nikos Alexandris

Step-by-step, I have some Very DRAFT without tests at https://github.com/NikosAlexandris/rekx/tree/main/rekx in a 'works-for-me' state. @martindurant any interest in seeing this growing ?

I am working on it : https://github.com/NikosAlexandris/rekx#examples -- these are just a small part of what `rekx` can already crunch. In time I will add examples for Kerchunking massive datasets.

@martindurant And of course, if I wasn't clear, I don't mind for whatever scenario if this goes well: integrate directly here-in or link to it. Whatever works better.

I am working on `rekx` further as it serves for my work. The idea is to bring it to a _cleaner_ shape before integrating to Kerchunk. I feel some important...
