All the time. Naming things in programming is hard and I never get it right at first. Knowing that it may be a relative pain to rename a project later causes me to procrastinate on starting new projects a bit sometimes as I ponder what the perfect name should be.
Find-and-replace may work for Elixir, so that's nice, but in my experience find-and-replace often doesn't work trivially across programming projects, and that lack of trust is a problem. Just because it turns out that it can be done that way doesn't mean it's the best user experience. Making the obvious things easy should be a goal. Whether it's open-mindedly iterating on this proposal or a mix task I don't personally care, but we should recognize it's a valid pain point. There should be an Elixir-blessed solution to the problem, IMO. - mt On Wednesday, November 30, 2016 at 1:34:06 PM UTC-8, Michał Muskała wrote: > > How often one needs to rename the application?
