By transparency; I mean like LZX in NTFS; the folder is accessible as a folder not as a file. An application can be launched without decompressing the entire folder...? I use LZX and Xpress for compressing most of my storage... I am looking for alternatives to these.
This is non-transparent? I only heard of this from a post about Linux kernel compression.
This only compresses as .zst ?
Is there any plans to make this transparent?

zstd is supported as the compression algorithm in at least btrfs (as well as zfs, though not officially yet). It is up to the work of file systems to implement zstd, not the zstd project itself.
