Hey @abrahimzaman360,

Thanks for bringing this up! I understand that our documentation primarily mentions .md files, which might lead to some confusion.

The read_files_as_documents and read_github_repo_as_documents functions were designed to be versatile. By default, they support various file types, not just .md. The required_exts parameter lets users filter the types of files they want to read, but it's entirely optional.

Here's how you can use it:

1. If you want to read all supported file types, simply omit the required_exts parameter.
2. If you want to specify file types, include them in the required_exts parameter.

For example:

read_files_as_documents(input_dir="your/path/to/documents", required_exts=['.pdf', '.txt'])

You can check all our supported file types here.

I hope this clarifies things! If you have more questions or suggestions, please let us know. We appreciate your feedback!
