Making the package name lowercase #120

Closed azharichenko closed 4 years ago

I find that the current usage is not very intuitive since the package name is case sensitive and makes typing it a hassle, as shown below.

Instead, let's just make it all lowercase so that typing and adding the package is a breeze, and follows the convention most other packages follow.

Note: This is just effecting the users use of the package and don't reflect a change of the name you use to install through pip. Essentially this will still hold pip install PittAPI

Go for it. This would actually make it fit the standard, right now it's not compliant. https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#package-and-module-names
