yari doesn't mean anything

[softorangetech1122]

According to Wikipedia, the name "Yari" is a Japanese blade, and it is not a real word.

So why call the platform code storehouse yari? I suggest it to be called platform-code.

Thank you for your question and suggestion

This is a proper name. Many engines or tools have names. For example, the OS of Microsoft is called Windows and not Microsoft-OS. Car makers name cars: Porsche named its SUV Cayenne and not Porsche SUV, …

The previous engines powering MDN were MediaWiki, DekiWiki, and Kuma. This one is called Yari. The engine is not always the same, it changes over time.

It is a name.

Additionally, it doesn't need to be in the dictionary. It is better for it not to be in the English dictionary as it makes SEO and searches easier and more efficient.
Even you named your tool Codasove and not softaorangetech200-code-coverage.

That's the same: Mozilla decided to name the new engine Yari, replacing the old one, Kuma.

(Anyway, nobody will change its name now).

I hope this clarifies the naming of the tool.
