How notes are organized

Notes are organized in three levels:

1. Repository index (README.md, README.es.md)
2. Book index (books/<book-name>/README*.md)
3. Chapter notes (books/<book-name>/chapters/ES/*.es.md and books/<book-name>/chapters/EN/*.md)

Each chapter includes top and bottom navigation, language switching, and cross-links.
