Description of problem

There are several "Stepper" Libraries available
I know that I can use the ID to list it in my dependencies

lib_deps =
    ArduinoLog@^1.0.3
    ESP Async WebServer@1.2.0
    ; Stepper (874)
    874@^1.1.0
    ESP8266 and ESP32 Oled Driver for SSD1306 display@^4.0.0
    ArduinoJson@^6.10.0
    ; #1260 OneButton
    1260@f78433c209
    VL53L0X@^1.0.0

But this is very annoying. I have to add a comment 'Stepper (874)' to remind me what 874 is!

Maybe you could implement something like this:
`Stepper#874@^1.1.0``

Another solution would be to switch to a Java style package naming convention: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/package/namingpkgs.html

Thanks

Please subscribe to this issue #1824

We are going to deprecate installing libraries by ID in the upcoming PlatformIO Core 4.0. To avoid conflicts between libraries with the same names, you can specify an Owner as a prefix group.

For 874@^1.1.0, it will be @arduino-libraries/Stepper@^1.1.0.

Will it help you?

Yeah, cool. Everything that makes a packagename unique is a solution. Thanks!
