Looking cool. When I was listening to your devfm episode WRT typestat, I wondered if it is worth renaming the project as you get closer to a 1.0?

Typestat being a migration tool is definitely not what I'd get from that name

I agree. ts-enhance, maybe?

strict-me-up, maybe

As much as I love strict-me-up / ts-me-up, current top-of-mind is ts-aid for simplicity. Ideating on the logo here & elsewhere:

Following up: my final draft of naming is the following monorepo structure...

• ts-lift for the general package name
• ts-initialize for the onboarding portion ("JavaScript to TypeScript")
• ts-enhance for the types improving portion ("TypeScript to better TypeScript")

...yay!

Edit: for fun, some alternatives considered were...

• ts-advance
• ts-boost
• ts-convert
• ts-lift

Closing as resolved in favor of #1341.
