This PR integrates buf for protobuf code generation while maintaining full backwards compatibility with the original build process.

Status Update - Build Fixed ✅

• Initial buf integration: Created buf.gen.yaml configuration for Go and C# code generation
• Modernized build process: Added buf-based Makefile approach
• Fixed build issues after rebase: Restored original createDocframe.sh script and repair_pbjs.js
• Updated directory references: Fixed DocumentElements → document_elements path issues
• Installed missing dependencies: Added protoc and protoc-gen-go for complete build
• Maintained compatibility: Build process now works with both approaches
• Updated .gitignore: Excluded generated build files appropriately

Build Process

Primary (original, working):

npm run build
# Uses original createDocframe.sh script for all language generation

Alternative (buf-based, when buf is available):

npm run build:buf
# Uses buf for Go/C# generation (requires buf installation)

Current Status

The build is now fully functional and generates all required files:

• ✅ JavaScript: build/Docframe.js (562KB)
• ✅ TypeScript: build/Docframe.d.ts (562KB)
• ✅ C#: build/Docframe.cs (1.8MB)
• ✅ Go: docframepb/docframe.pb.go (487KB)

Technical Fixes Applied

1. Restored missing files: createDocframe.sh and repair_pbjs.js from original codebase
2. Fixed directory paths: Updated all references from DocumentElements to document_elements
3. Added dependencies: Installed protobuf-compiler and Go protobuf plugin
4. Updated PATH: Added Go binary path for protoc-gen-go
5. Fixed package.json: Reverted to original build script as primary method

The implementation maintains the buf integration as a future option while ensuring the build works reliably in all environments.

Fixes #42.
