Rename ViewHelper to Path

[aldipower]

As discussed, I'll do this in a seperate PR here now.

Yeah, great! 😃 But why did you remove the "Helper" suffix? We have the "Component" suffix for components and "Event" for all events...

[aldipower]

The Path-object is generic usable collection of functions. The Helper suffix is meaningless here imho.
Also I don't think the word 'Helper' fits the meaning of processing functions.

The other suffixes you've mentioned are meant to express the architectural flow and also by convention from React/Flux.
Consider:

AppListComponent
AppListActions
AppListStore
AppListEvents

This fits in the application architecture and has unique meanings. They depend on each other.

[orlandohohmeier]

You're right, the suffix is not needed. But I would add the suffix anyway, just to have fewer conventions/rules without any exceptions.

[aldipower]

I could live with PathUtil. But derive the suffix from the pathname the file lives in, isn't a convention to me.

[orlandohohmeier]

Don't you move specific files to specific dirs, because of their type? Thus the convention is to suffix files with their type and move them to the respective dir...

PathUtil sounds good to me. What about also renaming the dir (helpers->utils)?

[aldipower]

Every rule has exceptions. :)
And I would say the rule here is more the other way around.
I'll name the directory derived from the files, because I gathered a bunch of files of the same type.
Files first.
I don't name the files, derived from the directory name, that doesn't makes sense to me.
Sounds maybe nitpicking.
Will rename the file to PathUtil.

That's exactly what I meant. Any how, LGTM! 😄
