About the name
nuqs was originally called next-usequerystate. The old name was too long
and annoying to type.
How is it pronounced?
Up to you. I say “nukes”. [njuks]
What does it mean?
Never underestimate query strings.
Kidding aside, it’s the initials of the original name, Next-UseQueryState.
I realised after the fact that the word nuqs in Urdu & Arabic means “flaw” or “defect”.
It’s a good reminder that:
Perfection is a direction, not a destination.
— James Wright
I probably should have checked the meaning of the word before using it, and apologise to any Urdu/Arabic-speaking user who might find it offensive.
It’s also Klingon for “What?!”, the kind of reaction you get when you
move from useState to URL state for the first time. 🖖
