ngicks - Overview

Hi there πŸ‘‹

Name

The name ngicks is made from 2 words.

  • 苦い(bitterness)
  • シゲキックス(Series of candy made and sold by ε‘³θ¦šη³–ζ ͺ式会瀾)

One of my favorite video game, Pikmin 2, had ゲキニガスプレー(gekiniga-spray, ultra-bitter spray) and ゲキカラスプレー(gekikara-spray, ultra-spicy spray).

シゲキックス is famous for its super-sour taste.

I had a terribly simple idea to combine these 2 words to form up a name.

Commit emoji prefix

I prefer emoji commit prefixes, e.g.

✨(module name if monorepo): breif description of change

The list of prefix emoji-es is as follows.

prefix meaning
✨ new or change of features
πŸ› bug fixes
πŸš€ performance optimization
🧹 cleaning / refactor
πŸ”₯ removing stuff
πŸ“¦ moving files / bump dep versinons
βœ… add / change tests
πŸ“ add / change documents
πŸ‘· change of build / build constraint / CI/CD workflow

This list is likely expanded in the future.

Only emoji-es which diplay well on all platforms I usually use (neovim, lazygit, web browser, other IDEs, etc) are chosen.
