Naming of node packages with @ and /

[swedebugia]

Hi

There are some crazy naming going on in the node-community. How do we 
deal with this?

Note: there is another package called "babel-core" so just 
stripping/replacing the weird characters won't work well.

Any ideas?

Look this example: 
https://github.com/babel/babel/blob/master/packages/babel-core/package.json

Extract:
{
  "name": "@babel/core",
  "version": "7.1.6",
  "description": "Babel compiler core.",
  "main": "lib/index.js",
  "author": "Sebastian McKenzie <address@hidden>",
  "homepage": "https://babeljs.io/";,
  "license": "MIT",

snip

  "dependencies": {
    "@babel/code-frame": "^7.0.0",
    "@babel/generator": "^7.1.6",
    "@babel/helpers": "^7.1.5",
    "@babel/parser": "^7.1.6",
    "@babel/template": "^7.1.2",
    "@babel/traverse": "^7.1.6",
    "@babel/types": "^7.1.6",
    "convert-source-map": "^1.1.0",
    "debug": "^4.1.0",
    "json5": "^2.1.0",
    "lodash": "^4.17.10",
    "resolve": "^1.3.2",
    "semver": "^5.4.1",
    "source-map": "^0.5.0"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@babel/helper-transform-fixture-test-runner": "^7.0.0",
    "@babel/register": "^7.0.0"
  }
}
