Re: Or stupid package names
My favourite recent example is that a bunch of people disagreed with how FastAPI
is developed (its essentially one developer, who allegedly is not all that keen on collaboration), so setup a similar project from scratch called starlite
. Now, starlette
is an framework for building ASGI web applications, and it's used in fastapi
and used to be used in starlite
, hence the name. They recently decided that starlette
was too limiting for starlite
and have just finished divorcing themselves of it!
So we now have fastapi
which depends on starlette
. starlite
is like fastapi
and doesn't depend on starlette
, and starlette
and starlite
do completely different things!
