Question: reason for not allowing '.' in the project name

[arnederuwe]

When using makes to scaffold a new Aurelia 2 app, you can't use the . char in the project name.
What's the reason for this? Does it break something I'm not aware of?

We mostly set up our smaller Aurelia projects like this:

• MyApp.Api (.net core)
• MyApp.Business (.net standard)
• MyApp.Client (Aurelia)

I couldn't think of a reason either :-)
It was just a very conservative selection of allowed characters. Will add "." soon.

In the meantime, you can manually create the folder then run npx makes aurelia --here within.
