I read Spotify. I am not sure if this is a good thing at all, sorry, just don't think it's a good thing.

I automatically assumed it had something to do with Spotify. Maybe an adblocker?

    Wow I forgot about those. Templating in general sucks, it’s just so hard to create something that makes a program accessible and has safety for user generated content.

  Funny enough, I had a hard time reading that because the word choice is different from what I'm used to.

First I read Spotify then I read Shopify. So... - Name does not describe what the product does - Name is easily confused with other brands - Name sounds more like a SaaS/PaaS product than a widget Personally I would think of a different name.

  By the way, the name describes the product _exactly_. The infrastructure enables stopping functionality in JavaScript programs. It stop-ifies them. Hence Stopify.

Y'all, the primary goal is meant to be a compiler infrastructure, not a user-facing product. The reason we have the demo site set up is to show people that the infrastructure composes with a bunch of existing compilers pretty seamlessly. In a perfect world, Stopification is integrated into the existing compiler back-ends and this site essentially disappears. So stop worrying about the name.
