💭 Renaming Jtree? #126

Closed breck7 closed 3 years ago

breck7 commented 3 years ago

Looking to greatly improve the UX of JTree, including revisiting the name of the repo.

Because tools for building alternative 2-d and 3-d langs perhaps will be included in this new repo, in addition to the tree notation tools, we could pick something more open ended.

Total spitball:

Oh I like these @boticello. Spitball, Breeze and Burble especially. Thanks!

boticello commented 3 years ago

What about tree-related words? Like acorn, sapling, shrub, or bark...

breck7 commented 3 years ago

The question I'm mining on is whether to use a term that is more general than a tree shape. While all structures are trees, trees evoke a certain shape, and there are increasingly 2D and 3D symbolic languages that don't quite evoke that shape. Although, they are always connected by some invisible spine. Sorry this is very abstract. Not an urgent priority, perhaps something to do in the next 6 months to 6 years.

Going to punt on this for probably a year or so
