* The Grand Reformat - everything made prettier...literally - some tweaks to include a few more files, including documentation - minor changes to format style - some tiny `// prettier-ignore` changes to keep a few things the way we like them - a couple of super minor tweaks to embedded document types to ensure they format correctly

Using Systemd socket based activation to start Compiler Explorer
This document gives a short overview of how to use Systemd to automatically start Compiler Explorer when the web-interface is accessed.
You'll need to create two files in /etc/systemd/system/:
compiler-explorer.socket:
[Socket]
ListenStream=10240
[Install]
WantedBy=sockets.target
compiler-explorer.service:
[Service]
Type=simple
WorkingDirectory={{path_to_installation_directory}}/compiler-explorer
ExecStart=/usr/bin/node {{path_to_installation_directory}}/compiler-explorer/app.js
TimeoutStartSec=60
TimeoutStopSec=60
StandardOutput=syslog
User={{run_as_this_user}}
Group={{run_as_this_group}}
Replace the bracketed {{}} placeholders with your system specifics.
Once the two above files are created Systemd needs to be made aware of the changes:
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
Now all that remains is to enable and start the new service:
sudo systemctl enable compiler-explorer.socket
sudo systemctl start compiler-explorer.socket
If all goes well you can now open the web-interface.
