Oh wow, how come I missed this important issue.
FoalTS is Foal + TS. What about Cryos?
Coming from linux world, I'm familiar with OS-suffix. EasyOS, KaOS, PureOS, ClearOS, VyOS. And googling Cryos brought me result related with a bank.
Nevertheless, I :heart: FoalTS/Cryos
I bet "Foal" is the English translation of your last name "Poullain"?
I personally like this name, and as mentioned above, "Cryos", from a first look doesn't seem to be anything related to a TypeScript framework.
And if I google for "cryos", the first result is a sperm bank...
Anyway, I like this framework no matter what it is called. :-)
Looking forward to v2.0, stay healthy too!
Thank you for sharing your feedback on this. If anyone else would like to share their as well, feel to free to do so!
I bet "Foal" is the English translation of your last name "Poullain"?
Yes it is.
Yes it is.
Undocumented :smile:
Also I see the sperm bank as being the first result. Why not rename FoalTS as Foal? I am a native English speaker and I just think of a baby deer
I add this comment in addition to the qualitative answers for those who don't feel like adding a comment.
If you prefer to keep FoalTS (or Foal), you can add the emoticon ❤️ . If you prefer to change the name to Cryos, you can add the emoticon 🎉 .
(And if you like both, you can add both emoticons).
From your feedback, it seems that Foal wins. Based on the previous comment, most voters either prefer Foal/FoalTS or agree with both names, so let's keep Foal.
Other native English speakers also said that it just made them think of a baby deer and not of foul
, so I think that should be fine.
Maybe the framework will be more designated as Foal is the future rather than Foal TS to be more warm and easier to pronounce / remember. What do you think about that?
Hi all!
Update: see also comment https://github.com/FoalTS/foal/issues/817#issuecomment-725543325.
Over the past few months I have been working hard to find a new name for the framework.
The reason for this is that the name FoalTS had several drawbacks:
It took a lot of time (finding 30 to 40 names, testing them orally and in writing with many people, checking their availability, registering the name to be protected, etc) but now it's here: the framework will be named Cryos in the future.
It will require some work to update the name and, starting with version 2, the packages will be named
@cryos/core
,@cryos/typeorm
, etc. We will make sure (in documentation, articles, etc.) that in the next 12 months it will be easy to understand that FoalTS and Cryos are the same product.
