Naming your package

When you create a package, you always have to go through the painfull process of naming your package.

While it is not specific to TypeScript, it is still beneficial to follow certain guidelines to make your life a bit easier.

You should use snake_case for your package name.

Why?

NodeJS is not opinionated about package names, but Deno prohibits using kebab-case or PascalCase as module name.

Since Deno is likely to stay, you should use snake_case so that they are consistent.

You should name your package with nouns.

Why?

Naming your package with verbs typically means your package is doing just one thing.

Of course, if that is what you want, that's fine.

But naming your package with nouns allows you to add similar features to your package, without causing confusion.
