Does anyone find it odd that a music classifier app names the web framework in the title but not the classifying toolkit? Django is a web framework, why does i

  While making this project, we first tried many classification algorithms to find the best one. We used Matlab for that. We called it mgc-matlab. Then we made a package in python using poly kernel SVM and called it mgc-python. Finally while making the Web application it was named mgc-django. Looks like we are not very good at nomenclature. What other name would you suggest?

    To me Django is not the core part of your project. Django could easily replaced by any other Python web framework. The interesting bit is the SVM. I would stick to mgc-python. And in the title of the post/project perhaps highlight that instead of Django.

  Same reason why you see so many posts of "(thing) for Rust", "(other thing) in Go", etc. Some people are interested by the thing, others will be interested by what it was implemented with.

    > others will be interested by what it was implemented with Agreed but I think the point is regarding which "with". Let's say your hot-dog-not-hot-dog project leverages glibc, linux, json, LLVM, scipy, pandas, OpenCV. When you write a title to feature your project on HN or similar, should you pick "hot-dog-not-hot-dog in OpenCV" or "hot-dog-not-hot-dog using glibc"? Yes, it's true that you couldn't have gotten it done at all w/o a libc. But that's probably not what you should lead with.
