When naming components, packages, or files that conflict with existing names in your system or related ecosystems, follow a systematic approach to ensure uniqueness while maintaining semantic clarity:
When naming components, packages, or files that conflict with existing names in your system or related ecosystems, follow a systematic approach to ensure uniqueness while maintaining semantic clarity:
# Instead of just:
unison.rb
# Use:
panic-unison.rb
# For different implementations of the same concept:
appium (formula)
appium-desktop (cask)
# For application variants:
angband (formula)
angband-app (cask)
This approach ensures names remain unique, descriptive, and intuitive, making the codebase more maintainable and reducing confusion for developers working across related systems.
