Gem name is not elegant #18

Closed oleg-vinted closed 7 months ago

oleg-vinted commented 1 year ago

I realize this is VERY subjective, but I think it would make sense to rename the gem - or at least its CLI executable - to something more elegant. Having _ in the name feels off, very rarely do CLI applications have underscores in their names.

Someone on the Modularity slack mentioned packwerker as an option. This feels more elegant, but I'm afraid this can cause confusion about the relation between packwerk and packwerker.

I'm not proposing a specific name at this point though.

Hi Oleg 👋 Great point (and packwerker is too clever not to use somewhere 💡 )!

This may be something that you can do locally in the meantime by using a binstub to rename it.

Hey @oleg-vinted –

We were thinking of possibly renaming use_packs to just packs and renaming packs to packs-specification. What would you think of that?
