Figure out a name

Open bkeepers opened this issue 10 years ago • 4 comments

Pretty much the only thing holding up an initial release of this is a name. I like envy, but the gem is taken. I just emailed @justinvt to ask if he would be willing to give it up.

Some words that describe what this thing does:

  • A schema for the environment
  • A manifest of environment variables
  • Cultivate (prepare the environment for the application)

Envy is awesome as it is short and memorable. Hopefully he gives it up.

You could name it after yourself. Then people could install keepers to get things setup and nunes to measure everything. Muhahahahahaha

I've emailed the owners of envy, envious, and envoy and gotten no reply. 😢
