Allow number formats such as 1.2 ... 2.3, 2.4, 2.5?

As far as I can tell, the only way to number episodes is sequentially. I would like to have a part 1 and part 2 with multiple episodes, all within the same repository. Is this available or a possibility to support?

This is more of a jekyll thing than ours. SWC uses GitHub to render pages, and GitHub uses jekyll. Having said that, you can already name your episodes like 1.2-something.md or 09-01-topic.md... See, for example: https://github.com/SANBI-SA/hpc-in-a-day/tree/master/_episodes

some lessons have a 2a and 2b format.

After reading more closely, I misunderstood initially. I think that the most consistent way to do it, is to number all of the episodes sequentially and then insert breaks, like instructor training: https://carpentries.github.io/instructor-training/
