Branding as a proper noun is referred to as "Boxo" with a capital B.
- "boxo" is physical toolbox vendor. "boxo" the project is intended to be a toolbox of modules, tools, and examples that can aid one in their go-based IPFS implementation.
- Similarity between the "box" and IPFS's "cube" shape.
- Audible resonance with "kubo", which is the archeologically-rich soil from which "boxo" has sprouted from and "kubo" is at least currently one of the significant consumers of "boxo".
- "boxo" is short.
See https://github.com/ipfs/boxo/issues/215 for more of the history.
One is welcome to use the Boxo logos/name in their own projects, put it on their readmes, etc. without the consent of the project maintainers.
