This PR adds all the guides from [Visual Guides](https://bytebytego.com/guides/) section on bytebytego to the repository with proper links. - [x] Markdown files for guides and categories are placed inside `data/guides` and `data/categories` - [x] Guide links in readme are auto-generated using `scripts/readme.ts`. Everytime you run the script `npm run update-readme`, it reads the categories and guides from the above mentioned folders, generate production links for guides and categories and populate the table of content in the readme. This ensures that any future guides and categories will automatically get added to the readme. - [x] Sorting inside the readme matches the actual category and guides sorting on production

In this concise and visually engaging resource, we break down the key concepts of database partitioning, explaining both vertical and horizontal strategies.
Range-Based Sharding
Splitting your data into distinct ranges. Think of it as organizing your books by genre on separate shelves.
Key-Based Sharding (with a dash of %3 hash)
Imagine each piece of data having a unique key, and we distribute them based on a specific rule. It's like sorting your playing cards by suit and number.
Directory-Based Sharding
A directory, like a phone book, helps you quickly find the information you need. Similarly, this technique uses a directory to route data efficiently.
