Am I the only one childish enough to ask for the language to be called Earl Grey Hot in honor of Star Trek?


The JS transpiler should be named 'picard'


If we write a Webpack Hot-Module-Replacement plugin for it, the natural name would be earl-grey-hot.


This is also what I thought. I was disappointed to see no TNG references on the page.


We could always write a little utility in it called Engage to make things right.


I like Earl Grey tea, but I don't watch Star Trek, so it didn't even occur to me. Sorry about that :(

On the other hand I have to admit I like the idea of calling utilities Picard or Engage, they have a nice ring to them. Hmm.


If you do add those references the people will love you!


immediately went looking for a Tea.js.....
