This module provides a compatibility layer for the C++17 filesystem library. If
the filesystem library is available this module will simply forward its contents
into the ``hpx::filesystem`` namespace. If the library is not available it will
fall back to Boost.Filesystem instead.

See the :ref:`API reference <modules_filesystem_api>` of the module for more
details.
