Project Identity

Sysand Index identifies packages from package metadata.

Modern Project IDs¶

A modern project ID combines a publisher ID and a package name ID:

publisher/name

For example:

sensmetry/fancy-stuff.teapots

Publisher and name fields are normalized by lowercasing and replacing spaces with hyphens. Dots remain dots in package names.

Why Identity Matters¶

Project identity is used for search, package pages, release metadata, client resolution, and dependency references.

Before publishing, check that metadata produces the identity you expect.
