Change the name of this to avoid ambiguity #8

A quick google search shows a number of web things named Hamlet.

What did you like about the name Hamlet? Could you possibly name it something a bit more representative of what it brings to the templating world?

mdiebolt commented 10 years ago

We chose the name Hamlet as an homage to the Haml syntax the templates are based on. We aspire to be a newer generation of templating, solving the problem for dynamic, single-page JavaScript applications the same way Haml did for traditional server-client applications originally.

In addition, @strd6 wrote an adaptation of the play Hamlet set on the moon during college. So, we thought it was a good fit.

We don't have plans to change the name in the immediate future but we're open to the possibility if it becomes a major problem.

Overall I agree, in terms of Google results for just hamlet will almost never return this library :( What about at least hamlet.js? My preference would be something more identifiable.

HamletJS as suggested by @alexgorbatchev might be great.

STRd6 commented 10 years ago

Similar to @JikkuJose and @alexgorbatchev's suggestions I think we can go with Hamlet.coffee as the full name and use Hamlet as shorthand in contexts where it is unambiguous.

jikkujose commented 10 years ago

Cool, that should make it more discoverable.
