Need to rename the extension. m2-devtools does not make it clear that this extension is designed to help with front-end development tasks.

  • m2-tools-not-for-backend ;)
  • m2-front-dev-tools
  • falanouc, furcifer, etc. (some animal name that is on the list of endangered animals)

m2-tools-not-for-backend

This is kind of my favorite, but I suspect not everyone will be a fan 😂

m2-front-dev-tools

This one has a +1 from @omiroshnichenko (possibly abbreviated as m2-front-devtools). My only concern is if that sounds too close to @igloczek's frontools.

m2-browser-tools

My vote is for this one, but maybe that's also too generic?

I also thought about m2-browser-tools - but it doesnt says it's frontend/backend (it says it just works or is for browser)

Other idea as Christmas are coming: m2-magic-front-box / m2-front-magic-box m2-frontbox / m2-front-box make-m2-front-fit-again (slim / light)

m2-happy-front-dev-tools (dev as frontend developer tools and dev tools 2in1 ;) )

How about m2-frontend-due-diligence Or m2-unfuck-front Or even m2-lighthouse-fix

That would bring more projects in to use it.

First I would change m2 to magento2 so that's consistent with other magento2 repo names, such as magento2-sample-data, magento2-jp, magento2-kubernetes-devbox, etc.).

Second I would opt for one of the following:

  • frontool
  • fronttool
  • frontendtools
  • front-tool
  • frontend-tool
  • frontend-dev-tool

There's already a repo called: magento2-patches-tool, so would consistent to use "tool" at the end for such repos. End result would be something like "magento2-frontend-tool"
