Fun thing; I named Umbrella JS that way when i realized that you can use unicode as javascript variable names AND I just happened to find that as the first one. So the initial library (a jQuery sustitute) was literaly `"UMBRELLA UNICODE"('selector')` (note: HN doesn't allow for the character). Of course sanity came back and when releasing something decent I changed the name back to "u('selector')"
See the character I mean: http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/2602/index.htm http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/2602/index.htm
- kuzirashi 10y agoWow, that's curious! Did it work in JavaScript though? Or just in name of package? :)
- franciscop 10y agoI doesn't seem to work anymore! But it used to work as the library was using that in the beginning.
