How should article parsing work long-term? /article parsing needs to generate a cache.articles.json file in the /app directory. This way we have a single resource that gets updated frequently.

Date property addition #7 When the article cache mechanism fires (need to decide how to trigger this thing...) we glob() each .md file located within /content/articles and iterate against them into the cache.articles.json file. Each article object in our JSON schema has a published property that is denoted by the published key set in the files' FrontMatter block.

By default if the FrontMatter block does not contain a published: key, the article is considered published: true.
