Oh no. I managed to nerd snipe myself into Yet Another Side Project™ … again. Noooooo. #TooManyIdeas

… and upon publication it turns out the package name and netlify domain are already taken 🫤 So I generated a second side project named `namecheck` that allows me to check whether a name is available or not … and of course the `namecheck` name itself is ALSO already taken 😆

Inspired by `caniuse` I renamed the namecheck project to `caniname` caniname.netlify.app Currently checks Netlify subdomain names and NPM package names. Any other checks to add?

caniname.netlify.appcaniname – Check Project Name Availability Across Netlify, NPM, and MoreA zero-dependency CLI tool and Node.js library to check project name availability across Netlify, NPM, and more.

Can you check firebase subdomains too?

Ask your agent and file a PR ;) (The project is constructed in such a way that each check is a separate file on disk)
