I am outputting ActivityPub/ActivityStreams content for the listing of what is in a directory.

Think of it as the AP/AS version of output from the `ls` command.

AP/AS has a whole bunch of stuff that can be used to represents files. Even sub-types of files

And, while AP/AS has 'Collection' (and 'CollectionPage') —

AP/AS doesn't have a 'Directory' type (as a sub-type of 'Collection')

@reiver Cool! Is this part of a larger project?

Yes, I am creating a high performance read-only HTTP server for static files — that has built-in support for ActivityPub/ActivityStreams.

It also supports (the read operations of) WebDAV. So, it can be used as a shared read-only drive in operating-systems (OSes) that support WebDAV.
