So I can't register Fae.jl in the Julia registry because it's only 3 characters. I tried Fable.jl #67 , but that also won't work because it's to close to other names. To check whether a repo name is valid, I've been using the following script: https://github.com/JuliaCI/PkgTemplates.jl/issues/292#issue-882774743
So far, I have a small list:
Faebl -- Fractal Animation Engine By Leios
Aesop -- The Animation Engine (with sop at the end for some reason)
Dactyl -- Just my favorite meter when writing
Quibble / Squibble -- A nice name
Chiaki -- A nice name. People in Julia tend to name their packages after people names
Heleios -- Hutchinson Engine by Leios (follows from other Leios themed projects like Scribbleios, Rambleios, Simuleios, etc)
Symbae -- The SYMbolic Animation Engine
The other option is just not to put it in the official registries. When I think about it, it's kinda weird to put in the repos. I mean, people won't need it the same way they might need KernelAbstractions, CUDA, LinearAlgebra, etc. I could also imagine creating a Fae-specific registry with a bunch of predefined objects or different rendering methods.
I guess for now, I'll make a few videos and keep the code in "beta" until we can make a decision. Happy to hear opinions on names!
