File System

The SDK provides a virtual file system class which closely follows the "Node.js style of accessing the local file system". You can create files, read or directories, delete items, create streams and much more.

Refer to generated SDK docs

If you need in depth information about implemented functions and types you can always take a look at the generated SDK docs.
