Since Emacs 28, project.el is built-in package that offers similar
functionality to projectile. It is also available on GNU ELPA.

* piem.el (piem-inbox-coderepo-maybe-read): Add support for reading
  directory using project.el.

Thanks for the patch.  I started using projectile before project.el
existed and haven't had any motivation to explore project.el or other
options, so this is very much appreciated.

Hmm, project.el has existed longer than that, I think.
lisp/progmodes/project.el has been in the Emacs repo since 2015 and was
part of the Emacs 25 release.  However, if I recall correctly, it's a
bit of a moving target in terms of variable/function names.

Sorry, no changelog entries allowed in this code base :)  You could map
the gist of that onto the subject, though.  Something like

   piem-inbox-coderepo-maybe-read: Support project.el

I'd prefer to avoid inspecting a -- symbol if possible.  Maybe a good
indicator that project.el should be used is if project-list-file is
bound and the file it points to exists.

Also, `make compile' gives the following warning:

  piem.el:788:1:Warning: the function ‘project-prompt-project-dir’ is not known
      to be defined.

You can squelch that with

  (fboundp 'project-prompt-project-dir)

Both project-prompt-project-dir and project-list-file won't be available
until the Emacs 28 release, but, as you mention, project.el is on ELPA
too, so I think it's fine to be forward-looking here.
